Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. Fine copy in dustwrapper. "Among nineteenth-century rogue antiquaries, William Stevenson Fitch (1792-1859) casts a long shadow. A lifelong and passionate connoisseur of Suffolciana, Fitch is today remembered for a handful of monographs and his valuable local history collections, some sixty volumes of which remain in the Suffolk Record Office. In this new study his darker side is for the first time addressed: Fitch was also a persistent and unrepentant thief of books, broadsides and manuscripts, who betrayed scholarly access and personal trust, enriching both his own shelves and those of other collectors at the expense of unwary custodians" (dustwrapper blurb).

Drawing on records kept by principal participants in the sale and in the four subsequent "knock-outs", the Freemans reveal the intricacies of a practice whose workings have not previously been subject to such detailed and informed scrutiny.
