Synopsis:
REVOLUTION GRIPS THE CITY and aristocrats are marched to their deaths. In the midst of the chaos old Doctor Manette is released after eighteen years as a prisoner in the Bastille and reunited with his daughter in London. There, two very different men have fallen in love with Lucie Manette — the exiled French aristocrat, Charles Darnay, and the disreputable English lawyer, Sydney Carton.
But soon all four are drawn against their will to Paris and fall under the lethal shadow of the Guillotine ...
From the Publisher:
The classic, definitive, world-famous Nonesuch Press edition of 1937, finally available again and bound in leather and linen. The text in these stunning volumes is taken from the 1867 Chapman and Hall edition, which became known as the Charles Dickens edition and was the last edition to be corrected by the author himself. The Nonesuch edition contains full-color illustrations selected by Dickens himself, by artists including Hablot Knight Browne ("Phiz"), George Cruikshank, John Leech, Robert Seymour, and George Cattermole.
The Nonesuch Dickens reproduces the original elegance of these beautiful editions. Books are printed on natural cream-shade high quality stock, quarter bound in bonded leather with cloth sides, include a ribbon marker, and feature special printed endpapers. Each volume is wrapped in a protective, clear acetate jacket.
The books are available as individual volumes, or as sets. The six-volume set contains Oliver Twist, Bleak House, Christmas Books, Nicholas Nickleby, David Copperfield, and Great Expectations together with Hard Times. The three-volume set contains A Tale of Two Cities, Little Dorrit, and The Life and Adventures of Martin Chuzzlewit.
