About this Item
A very scarce copy of Juvenile Poems by Chandos Leigh, 1st Baron Leigh (1791 - 1850) who was a British landowner and poet. With a preface by the author to front dated 1817. First edition. Leigh was Lord Byron's schoolmate at Harrow and is said to have "inherited some of his master's poetical talent". He gained a reputation as an author and minor poet. He was also a cousin of Jane Austen, who visited Stoneleigh Abbey in 1806. In a paper covered binding. Externally, generally smart but with some wear to extremities, slight rubbing and the odd mark to boards. Internally, binding strained in places. Bright and generally clean throughout but with previous owner's small initial ink stamp to front free endpaper. Very Good. Seller Inventory # GEN26-E-13
