Hardcover. Zustand: Fair. No Jacket. 307 pages plus index (complete). Volume 1 only. 'The Spectator' was a daily publication from the early Eighteenth Century.

However, the pages are mild, clear, assured, utterly companionable, with a presence and perception that rings agreeable even now. A sure book. fk.
