Washington Irving, 1832

A fine copy of the first American edition, uncut in original boards. After completing his 1828 biography of Columbus, Irving traveled to Granada, which he would describe as "a most picturesque and beautiful city, situated in one of the loveliest landscapes that I have ever seen." There he was granted access to the palace and fortress complex The Alhambra, which inspired this 1832 work. BAL 10136 (binding variant A, with 21.3-4 present as blanks); Wright 1373.



Two volumes, 12mo (193 x 113mm). Uncut (without adverts). Original paper-covered boards, purple muslin spines, paper labels (fading to spines, some toning to boards, labels rubbed); modern chemises and quarter morocco slipcase.
