SCOTT, SIR WALTER. Ivanhoe: A Romance.
The Modern Library, New York: 1996. 0679602631 / 9780679602637 Third Printing. h Hardcover with dustjacket. Good condition.
Ivanhoe was the first of Scott's novels to take place in the Middle Ages but it is far from being the fantastic, medievalist romance associated (in the critical imagination) with a visionary Britain that never was. This is the first novel in English to deal seriously with issues of race. At the same time, it provides an exciting read too. "Scott was a born storyteller. . . . Since Shakespeare, no writer has created so immense a gallery of portraits." - Henry James

SCOTT, SIR WALTER The Waverly Novels, Volume 41, Volume 42: The Fair Maid Of Perth, (2 Volume Set).
Harper & Brothers, New York: 1990 Harper's Thistle Edition. h Hardcover, no dustjacket. Good condition.
Volume 41 & Volume 42 of The Waverly Novels. A remarkable novel, in part because late in his career Scott has a new subject and in part because he employs a spare narrative style that is without parallel in the rest of his oeuvre. Many critics have written off latest and seen his last works as evidence of failing powers. This edition will prove these critics wrong, for in it we see a luminous creative intelligence working at high pressure to produce a tightly organized and deeply moving novel.
