1859. Embossed cloth hardcover, no dust jacket, 386 pages, some not cut. Very good condition with edge wear to the cover. The book begins with a short biography of Addison, describing him as "having his lips in general barred by the double bolts of caution and secretivevness, one ceases to wonder that the invisible spirit of wine was welcomed by him as a key to open occasionally the rich treasures of his mind", suggesting that he wrote his best poetry when drunk.
