Hardcover. Condition: Good+. 1st Edition. Lacks Volume IV. Uniformly bound in full leather with decorative gilt covers front and back, each with an armorial seal, raised bands on gilt decorated spines, inner dentelles, all edges gilt, ribbon markers, with all covers still attached, frontis-piece in Volume I is present [foxed]. There are two bookplates inside each volume, each with a history attached to the owners. The first is E. Dennison, being Eduardo Denison. There is a Latin inscription to him in Volume I "Egregio Juveni Eduardo Denison Coll: Oriel: Supt. Ord. Commensali, Publica Examinatione In Litenis humaniovibus Primam Clafsem Adepts. D. D. Praepositus et Socii Osielenses. MDCCCXXII". It appears that this set was a gift for passing an exam of importance. In 1868 Argentina, Eduardo Denison, along with Octavia Hill, created Labor Centers, Worker's Clubs and Schools to help free those in poverty, banishing the systems of handouts in favor of work. He also worked with UNESCO, analyzing the influence of Education in the economic growth of a country. The second bookplate, being armorial, bears the name of W. Harry Rylands (1847-1922) a prolific author, Secretary to the Society of Biblical Archaeology, specializing in Oriental Archaeology and the Hittite Language. He also designed a fount of Hittite type, with this just touching upon his extensive activities in the fields of literature and antiquities. Covers show edge/corner wear, some upper spine weakness due to the books being improperly pulled from shelves, interior shows occasional light foxing.
