About This Item
Leeds: F.E.Bingley and Baldwin and Cradock, London 1833, 1833. First edition, first issue. 8vo in 4s (230x140mm). pp. viii, 157, [2, errata]. Original paper covered boards, rebacked in tan calf with red label, lettered in gold. Slight bumping and rubbing to corners but generally a very good binding. Contents in very good condition with a little foxing in places. Some pencil annotations and some of the typographical errors have been noted in pen in the lower margins. Armorial bookplate of Kennet of the Dene to front pastedown. This is an excellent copy of the only published volume of poems by S.T. Coleridge's rather underrated son. The title page indicates that this is volume one but in fact there were no further volumes and later editions of this collection removed "Vol. I" from the title page.

About Voewood Rare Books
Simon Finch has been a Rare Book Dealer since 1980. He has had shops in Notting Hill Gate, Mayfair and Holt, Norfolk. His firm has handled a wide variety of material from the First Folio of Shakespeare to the wilder shores of the counterculture and everything in between. In 1998, Simon bought Voewood, one of the finest Arts and Crafts and houses and brought it back to life with an eight-year programme of renovation and restoration. Voewood Rare Books, which operates from Voewood, is the continuation for Simon of a long career in the book trade. It also represents an important link with the House. Voewood is always beautiful, surprising, mysterious and perhaps a little disorientating and we aim to bring something of this spirit to the bookshop. Whilst our focus in on the visual arts, literature and the counter-culture, we deal also in a broad range of antiquarian and modern rare books across all subject areas. Our collection can be found here at Biblio and on our website. We are open by appointment and can always be contacted by email.
