Burnside Rare Books

The Wings of the Dove

James, Henry

New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1902.

First American edition, first printing. Two volumes in russet vertical ribbed cloth, a variant state binding noted by Edel & Laurence, who surmise it was issued simultaneously. Very Good, with wear at spine ends and corners, previous owner details scratched out on front free end papers. Volume I with inner hinges cracked but holding for now. Volume II shows scuffing and water drops to front cover, bumping to bottom corner of pages. A nice set, seemingly less common in the variant binding. Item #160726014
