Description

London England: Collins, 1965. Hardback. First Edition. The Wild Swan. Wear and tear to D/J. Hans Andersen's Fairy Tales are part of every child's heritage. Yet their creator has remained to most people a shadowy figure: a poor cobbler's son who lived and died in a little Dutch town. How mistaken is this assessment of Hans Christian Andersen's remarkable life and achievement. The author reveals in this engrossing book, which places him firmly in his wider European setting as man od letters, inveterate traveller, and friend of kings. The author has brought to life the men and women of the Romantic Movement, and given one of the best-loved and least-known contributors to world literature in his rightful place among them. Illustrated. 384 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.). First Edition. Cloth. Very Good/Fair. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall Octavo. Hardback.
