Condition: Very Good. 3rd edition. Original pebble grained green cloth, VG. 3 volumes, lii+379pp, ht+tp+419pp, ht+tp+408pp, b/w frontis to volume I. index to the work in volume III. half titles to each volume, sporadic foxing to the text blocks with the titles, endpapers & frontis moreso, pages largely un-opened, paper lettering pieces browned with that to volume I chipped with some loss to the lettering to the R hand side, cloth to the spines yellowed, but still a nice set in original condition. The Walpole half of the Walpole - Mann correspondence which lasted some 46 years, from 1740 - 1786. The letters sent by Mann ( which are not in these volumes ) have in the past been described as 'dry & devoid of interest'. Wheras that sent by Walpole to Mann, ensconsed as he was at the Tuscan Court, are full of news and anecdote of England. Indeed it has been said that even if, of all Walpole's copious correspondence, only that sent to Mann had survived, his reputation as a man of letters would have been secured. These volumes contain 360 of Walpole's letters to Mann. 1600 grams.

First Edition
8vo, pp. [ii], x, 327; pagination including 30-page booksellers' catalogue at end; a good copy in contemporary mottled calf, spine gilt (upper hinge cracked but firm, corners slightly worn). First edition of the French translation of An Answer to the latter part of Lord Bolingbroke's letters, probably by Horatio Walpole, first published in 1762. Hazen writes that it is 'often ascribed to Horace Walpole': it was left in MS by his uncle and published by his son Horatio (1723-1809). Lord Walpole (1678-1757), younger brother of Sir Robert, was a diplomat and politician in his own right. He had twice been British ambassador to the States General, so his works would have been of some interest at the Hague. Hazen p. 172, not noting the present French translation; Rochedieu p. 350. NUC records just one copy, at Yale.
