Leather. Zustand: Very Good. A uniformly bound set of Robert Plumber Ward's first novel. Second edition, published the same year as the first. Sadleir 3301. Adorned with a beautifully engraved frontispiece of Evelyn Hall to volume one. Collated complete. Published anonymously "The work had been edited by Colburn's reader P. S. Patmore, who some two years later, their mutual identities now disclosed, became Ward's literary adviser and close friend. Tremaine was in essence a didactic work, in parts resembling a theological tract. Charles Tremaine is a dandy who flees fashionable society and a short-lived parliamentary career for his country estate. This life too he finds unsatisfactory. Protracted exchanges follow between Tremaine and a neighbouring clergyman, Dr Evelyn, on such themes as deism, free will, and the problem of evil. Tremaine, whose ideas contain many of the assumptions of eighteenth-century philosophes, is gradually won over to orthodox Christianity and the hand of Evelyn's daughter Georgina. The novel had drawn a flattering portrait of fashionable society and was an immediate success, selling 1500 copies in three weeks. It was a pioneer of the silver fork genre, Michael Sadleir calling it "the chief impulse to Vivian Grey" and "the inspiration of the two most influential novelists of the 'thirties and 'forties"."

Externally, all volumes are lightly rubbed, and with some loss to the spine label of volume three. Previous owner's bookplate to the front pastedown. Internally, all volumes are firmly bound and bright, with only the odd spot, and light off-setting to the title page of volume one. Very Good. Various (illustrator). book.…
