Description
"A Journal of the Reign Queen Victoria 1852-1860"
Third Part: Volume I
These memoirs separated into 3 parts spanning 8 volumes; 3 volumes covering 1817-1837 (First Part), 3 volumes covering 1837-1852 (Second Part), and 2 covering 1852-1860 (Third Part). These were all published between 1874-1887.
Written in diary format, Greville accounts Great Britain and events occurring during the time of the reign of 3 different rulers.
This copy is bound in blue velvet cloth with a gold stamp on the center of the front cover. This stamp contains a goose with a crown around its neck, wings flapped, sitting atop a larger crown. A banner sits below the goose and crown stating "VIX EA NOSTRA VOCO".
Above the gold stamp is an imprint of a bookplate/title insignia that was present but has been removed. The title of the book seems to be indented into this spot "The Greville Memoirs: Third Part".
There is evident wear and tear to the surrounding areas of the cover and the spine. On the right-hand side of the cover, there is potential mold damage and velvet fading.
Inside the front cover, Edith Wharton's bookplate from Sainte-Claire-du-Chateau Hyeresis present, decorated around the edges.
