Author: OPTIC, Oliver (William T. Adams)
Title: In Doors and out; or, Views from the Chimney Corner
Description: Boston, Brown, Brazin, and Company, 1854. Hardcover. Small 8vo. Green/grey blind-embossed cloth with elaborate spine gilt lettering and decorations. 330pp. Engraved title page, full-page illustrations. Good. Edgeworn and quite rubbed and lightly soiled; endpapers and text block a bit age toned, with occasional minor foxing and spotting and dampstaining here and there. A tight and decent apparent first edition of this early essay collection -- the prolific Adams' third book and published the same year as his first title under the Oliver Optic pseudonym. Though well worn, a quite handleable copy of a difficult to find title. .
