This EASTON PRESS LIMITED EDITION volume includes many features not found in ordinary books: Luxurious leather binding cut from specially tanned hides of fine quality. Precious 22kt gold accents deeply inlaid on the traditional "hubbed" spine. Gilded page ends to add beauty and seal out harmful dust and humidity. Acid-neutral paper that won’t crumble with age. Smyth-sewn pages and heavy-duty binder’s board to ensure lasting strength and durability. Meticulous quality marked by careful attention to every detail. Satin-ribbon page marker adds an elegant finishing touch. Dickens's one serious, un-comic novel, A TALE OF TWO CITIES, is set during the French Revolution and tells a story of unselfish devotion. The beautiful Lucy Manette marries Charles Darnay, the descendant of an aristocratic French family denounced by the revolutionaries, among whom are the memorably evil fanatic Mme. Defarge. A classic in gorgeous binding.
