About This Item
London : The Verona Society , 1930. Cloth. Very Good. 9" by 6". Haydn Mackey. An illustrated re-print of the adventurous and enthralling novel The Unfortunate Traveller. This is a reprinted copy of Thomas Nash's novel The Unfortunate Traveller: Or the Life of Jack Wilton first published in 1594. The text has been taken from the earliest edition of The Unfortunate Traveller in the British Museum. Only one thousand copies of this edition have been printed and the illustrations are from blocks designed and cut by Haydn Mackey of which there are multiple throughout the text. Thomas Nash was an Elizabethan playwright, poet, satirist and pamphleteer most known for his novel The Unfortunate Traveller which is a picaresque novel that depicts Jack Wilton, a roguish but appealing hero, as he adventures through the European continent. In the publisher's original cloth binding. Externally, smart. There is some bumping to the spine. A previous owner's inscription is to the front free endpaper. Internally, firmly bound with generally bright and clean pages and the odd scattered spot throughout. Very Good
