New York: A. L. Fowle, Publishers, 1905. Hardcover. Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7?" - 9?" tall. Type: Hardback 1905 A. L. Fowle, Publishers. First published 1867 by D Appleton and Company. About Napoleon in Germany. This is One Book in Good Condition from the Special Edition of a Set of L. Muhlbach's Historical Fiction. Luise Muhlbach is the pen name for Clara Mundt, b. 1814 Neubrandenburg, d. 1873. She was a German writer best known for her works of historical fiction. They were quite popular for a relatively short time. Many, if not all, were translated into English. This novel was translated from the German by F. Jordan. The books in this set are all bound in red extended cloth over the spine with most of the gilt rubbed off the titles which are imprinted into the spine--almost look blind-stamped now; boards covered with green cloth. The green cloth is discolored along the lower half of the fore-edge on front and more so on a large part of the back panel. Otherwise, the book is quite clean, corners lightly scuffed, edges rubbed; sewn binding tight, solid and square. Bookplate of former owner on inside of front cover. Frontis: Naploleon, on coated paper, historic illustration, and four additional like illustrations--they are quite fine, in detail, expression, clothing, background, full page, monotone. Pages quite clean, no underlining, highlighting, or any other marking of text, no creases no marginalia, lightly toned. There may be a spot or two somewhere but I didn't find any. 507 pages. 7.5 x 5 inches. 1905, A. L. Fowle, Publishers, New York, USA
