Third Edition, with Forty Four Engravings by the Findens. London: John Murray, 1833. Three volume set, gilt ruled and blocked calf, 614 pages (16 engravings) + 612 pages (14 engravings) + 628 pages (14 engravings). Lord Byron , aka: George Gordon Byron (1788-1824), was a British poet and one of the leading figures in the Romantic Movement. Widely read and appreciated to this day, Byron gave proof of the ‘madness’ of poets with his aristocratic excesses, multiple romantic affairs (including one with his half-sister) and his penchant for extending himself into great debt. Renowned for his beautiful appearance, Byron gave as much vigor to his daily life as he did to such poems as Don Juan and She Walks in Beauty. For your consideration is this 1833 three volume illustrated set of the Letters and Journals of Lord Byron: with Notices of His Life, by Thomas Moore. Condition notes: Good. These 3 octavos, each measuring 8 ¾ inches by 5 ¼ inches, are bound in gilt ruled calf; moderate surface and edge wear to the boards. The lower corner of each book is water stained; this is mostly noticeable on the exterior and plate corners. Name plate to front end pages. Hinges tender.
