Description: Essays Author: EMERSON, Ralph Waldo Title: Essays Publication: Boston: James Munroe and Company, 1841 Edition: First Edition Description: First Edition. Hardcover. 12mo, 303pp. A fresh, lovely copy, bound in full crushed deep blue morocco by Taffin, with gilt borders,raised bands, gilt spine compartments, gilt dentelles, marbled endpapers, and gilt top edge. A few very small abrasions to the bottom edges of the boards and corners, and the rear board, and the spine panel just a tinge darkened (not the gilt). Altogether a very handsome copy, just about fine. Interior contents particularly fresh and bright, with a very small, faint stain on p. 9. Faint scuffing to two interior blanks. The binder has very neatly and lightly (if unnecessarily) pencilled in several page numbers, though this is reversible, if desired. A very handsome copy of Emerson's first book of essays, containing his imperishable "Self-Reliance" and "The Over-Soul," among others. BAL 5189; Grolier American 47. Fine.
