Leather. Condition: Very Good Indeed. A very scarce edition of this biography of former Prime Minister Charles Grey. A member of the Whig Party, he backed significant reform of the British government and was among the primary architects of the Reform Act 1832. In addition to his political achievements, he famously gave his name to Earl Grey tea. In 1830, the Whigs finally returned to power, with Grey as Prime Minister. His Ministry was a notable one, seeing passage of the Reform Act 1832, which finally saw the reform of the House of Commons, and the abolition of slavery throughout the British Empire in 1833. As the years had passed, however, Grey had become more conservative, and he was cautious about initiating more far-reaching reforms. In 1834 Grey retired from public life, leaving Lord Melbourne as his successor. In a full calf binding. Externally very smart, with just a few marks to the boards. Internally, firmly bound. Ink inscription to recto of front free-endpaper. Pages are spotted to first and last few pages. Very Good Indeed. None (illustrator). book.…

Cloth. Condition: Good. A highly sought after example of this biographical work, being signed and dedicated by Queen Victoria in her own hand. Truly a unique piece of history, relating to the life of Prince Albert, containing a scarce example of Queen Victoria's signature. Signed and dedicated to the front blank from Queen Victoria: "To Mssr. White from Victoria R. I., Balmoral, Oct: 1867" Whilst little is known regarding Mssr. White, this is the only known copy to contain the whole dedication written in Queen Victoria's hand, with other copies containing her signature alone, leading us to believe that White had a personal relationship to the Queen. Despite Queen Victoria's long reign, it is extremely unusual to find items signed in her hand which are separate from administrative documents or letters. Queen Victoria did not give her autograph to waiting members of the public, so examples such as this reflect a relationship between the recipient and the monarch. Collated complete with a frontispiece of Prince Albert at aged four, and Prince Albert at aged twenty from a miniature by Sir W. Ross. Half title is present. The fourth edition of the work. First compiled and published the same year under the Queen's direction for private circulation among members of her own family. The fascinating biographical work was commissioned by Queen Victoria and written by British Army officer and private secretary to first Prince Albert and later Queen Victoria, Charles Grey. The work covers the Prince's life from his birth in 1819 to their first year of marriage in 1840. The work was published six year after the death of Prince Albert; Queen Victoria is famed for disappearing from public appearances and entering deep mourning after the death of Albert. A very scarce example of a work signed by Queen Victoria, commissioned by the Queen and relating to the early life of her husband, Prince Albert.
