About this Item
FIRST EDITION. Half title, errata leaf at end. Sl. thinning of areas of titlepage from removal of small label to verso. A very nice clean copy, uncut, excellently rebound in suitable blue boards, drab paper spine. The first edition was followed by the 2nd, 3rd and 4th editions published by W. Sams in 1827. Ainsworth moved to London in 1824 and later met John Ebers, who was proprietor of the Opera House, Haymarket and a publisher. He married Eber's daughter, Fanny, and Eber published this volume of verses. 'That the present Work should be offered anonymously to the public, must be ascribed to the Author's unwillingness to forfeit his present relations with society, in which he might be considered a dangerous character, if known to be connected with the press as now conducted.' A poetical description of the capital, addressed to Ned. Seller Inventory # 92729
