JB13722 William Collins Sons & Co. Ltd. St. James Place London, United Kingdom 1975 First Edition Dust Jacket Fair Hard Cover Very Good Grey paper on boards. Volume has minor edgeware. Jacket has a flap tear at the top edge. The tape it was repaired with caused the lamination to lift over the tear area, which took out a piece of the D in Disraeli. It know it sounds really bad, but it doesn't look near as bad as it sounds. Creases and chips along the bottom edge, with another small tear at the rear panel bottom edge. Now in clear cover. This is the second volume in a projected trilogy. The first volume is titled: Disraeli in Love. "... Now, with his marriage to Mary Anne Wynham Lewis, a widow twelve years his senior, his ascent to respectability and also - unexpectedly - to happiness; Maurice Edelman recreates the elegant drawing-rooms and vicious squalor of Victorian London, the jostle of country hustings and crowded scenes in the House, to create a background for one of the most brilliant, colourful and outrageous figures of the Victorian age." $15.00USD
