The preliminary note reproduces the introductory text from December 1832 announcing the inclusion of the three chapters missing from the original 1831 edition.
The half-title pages of the three volumes were not preserved by the binder.
A few occasional spots, otherwise a pleasant copy, attractively bound in contemporary Romantic style.
Contemporary Romantic bindings in burgundy long-grain half morocco over marbled boards, smooth spines decorated with gilt Romantic arabesques, spines very slightly faded with minor, unobtrusive rubbing, double gilt fillet frames on the marbled paper boar
