Author: WAUGH. EVELYN.
Title: ROSSETTI. His life and work.
Description: Duckworth. London. 1928. FIRST EDITION. 8vo. (8.9 x 5.8 inches). Illustrated with 8 full page mono plates. Neat previous owner's initials to the front, and some offsetting to the other blank endpapers, otherwise a bright, tight and clean copy throughout. In publishers burgundy cloth with gilt lettering to the spine. A little rubbing to the very bottom of the spine but overall a near fine copy of Waugh's first commercially published solo work, preceded only by a short story featured in a 1926 anthology called Georgian stories, and two privately printed works; a poem and his essay on the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood which was issued in an edition of just fifty copies.
