Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. First One Volume Edition. First printing of the first one volume edition and first edition thus - Wessex Novels Volume VII, with a new two-page preface written by the author especially for this one-volume edition. The original three volume true first edition was published by Macmillan an…d Co, in 1887. Illustrated with a tissue-guarded black and white steel-engraved frontispiece etching by H. Macbeth-Raeburn, and a black and white map: 'The Wessex of the Novels' to the rear, as called for. ***Very good in dark green cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to the spine and a gilt circular floral illustration with 'TH' monogram to front board. Top edge of text-block gilt. Fore-edge and bottom edge of text-block untrimmed (rough-cut as called for). Head and tail of spine rubbed, nicked and creased, with a small amount of loss of the green cloth at the head of the spine. Corners rubbed and creased.

Internally the book is also very good, with no inscriptions. Some foxing to the endpapers but the pages are mostly clean - just a light splash mark to the first page of the preface. The binding is secure and not shaken. No splitting. Spine tight. with a steel-engraved frontispiece showing "The Country of 'The Woodlanders' - drawn on the spot." - lacking the tissue-guard. ***208mm x148mm. vi prelim-pages including the two-page preface by Thomas Hardy written in September 1895, plus 460 pages, and a black and white map of 'The Wessex of the Novels' at the back of the book. ***'"The Woodlanders" was serialised from May 1886 to April 1887 in Macmillan's Magazine and published in three volumes in 1887. It is one of his series of Wessex novels. The novel was later classified by Hardy for the Wessex Edition of his works in the primary group of "Novels of Character and Environment". Yet despite it being regarded as one of Hardy's major novels, the novel is 'something of an anomaly', in comparison with the tragic depth of both its predecessor "The Mayor of Casterbridge" and its successor "Tess of the D'Urbervilles." The novel reflects common Hardy themes: a rustic, evocative setting, poorly chosen marriage partners, unrequited love, social class mobility, and an unhappy, or at best equivocal, ending. As with most his other works, opportunities for fulfilment and happiness are forsaken or delayed. "The Woodlanders" was widely praised. It was declared by the Saturday Review in April 1887 to be, "the best [novel] that Hardy has written", by Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch, "his loveliest if not his finest book", by William Lyon Phelps, "the most beautiful and most noble of Hardy's novels", and by A. Edward Newton, "one of the best novels of the last half century". The late nineteenth century English author George Gissing read the novel in March 1888 "with much delight" but felt that the "human part is --- painfully unsatisfactory". The novel remained a personal favourite of Hardy's. Newman Flower recounted that Hardy named it to him as his "favourite novel", and 25 years after its publication, Hardy wrote that, "On taking up "The Woodlanders" and reading it after many years, I like it as a story best of all." (Wiki) ***First printing of the first one-volume edition, in its original gilt decorated cloth-covered boards, in nice condition for a book that is now 130 years old. Of interest to collectors of antiquarian literature and in particular Thomas Hardy first edition titles. Uncommon. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. H.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. 1st Edition. Book Condition, Fine: Light bumps to corners and edges or publisher's original cloth binding, small splits to back strip tail, faint marks across boards, otherwise excellent externally, with crisp and clean gilt decoration/lettering. Binding protected by a plastic slipcover. Text block in e…xcellent shape with deckle edges. Foxing spots to pastedown, but pages are clean and tidy. Book tightly bound. Frontispiece and internal map immaculate. Scarce first Osgood edition (Osgood, McIlvaine and Co). An extremely desirable later nineteenth-century issue of Hardy's breakthrough novel. Notably, Hardy supplied a new preface for this edition, adding textual and bibliographical interest for collectors. The inclusion of an etched frontispiece by Macbeth-Raeburn and a map of Wessex at the rear further enhances its appeal. As one of Hardy's most beloved and influential Wessex novels, early and variant editions such as this are keenly sought by collectors of Victorian literature. Far from the Madding Crowd tells the story of the independent and spirited Bathsheba Everdene and the three very different men who court her — the steadfast shepherd Gabriel Oak, the prosperous farmer Boldwood, and the dashing Sergeant Troy. Set against the rural landscape of Hardy's fictional Wessex, the novel blends romance, tragedy, and social observation. Rich in atmosphere and psychological insight, it remains one of Hardy's most enduring and celebrated works. Macbeth-Raeburn (illustrator).

Cloth. Zustand: Very Good Indeed. A handsome early edition of this notable Wessex novel by Thomas Hardy, in the publisher's cloth binding. Variant binding, with Harpers to spine, but published by Osgood. First published in book form in 1882 by Sampson, Low and Marston. The work was initially serialised by Atlantic Monthly, both…in the UK and US. 'Two on a Tower' is a fantastical romance set in late Victorian Dorset, following star-crossed lovers and their love which defies the divides of class and age. Part of Hardy's popular Wessex series, but was not well received upon publication due to its contents shocking the public of the 1880s. Illustrated with a frontispiece by H. Macbeth-Raeburn, and a map of Wessex. In the original cloth binding. Externally very smart with slight bumping to the extremities. The odd mark to the board. Ink inscription to front free endpaper. Internally firmly bound. Pages bright and clean. Marginal age toning. Very Good Indeed. H. Macbeth-Raeburn (illustrator). book.

London; Osgood, McIlvaine and Co. 1897. Large 8vo. Finely and richly bound in full tan morocco, spine with 5 raised bands, decoratively ruled in compartments and lettered, and dated, direct in gilt, with double panels to boards and decorative cornerpieces in gilt in triple-line gilt fillet, top edges gilt, others untrimmed, deco…rative gilt dentelles and marbled endpapers, by Birdsall of Northampton; pp. [iv], [v]-viii + [ii] + 337 + [i], with original cloth covers laid down and bound in to rear; illustrated with a frontispiece etching by H. Macbeth-Raeburn and a map of Wessex; a very nearly fine, and remarkably handsome, copy with just a touch of rubbing to joints and edges, internally uninscribed, and fresh, save offsetting from gilt dentelles to edges of free endpapers.First edition in book form of this often-overlooked Hardy novel which was published as volume XVII in the Wessex Novels series. It is Hardy's penultimate novel which appeared previously in serialised form as The Pursuit of the Well-Beloved in The Illustrated London News in 1892. Here it was considerably revised, for book publication. The setting for the work, as with so much of Hardy's fiction, is Dorset; in this case the Isle of Portland which is referred to here as the Isle of Slingers. With a fairy tale feel the novel tells the story of the sculptor Jocelyn Pierston who falls in love, over twenty-five years, with three generations of the same family - the first woman a romantic ingenue, the second a worldly coquette, the third a shy, well-educated virgin. Unsurprisingly the novel has been subject to much psychological interpretation over the years, centring around the subject of male desire.
