Looking for a book expert please

Recommended Posts

I have aquired two very very old books. From what i have seen they appear to be part of a set but are could be quite sought after.

I am wondering if anyone has any antique book knowledge please.

 

The first is

Quentin Durward

Waverly novels, border edition, 250 illustrations edited by Andrew Lang. Published in 1900 in really good condition.

 

The second is Through Forest and Fire, Nelson's travel series- has a message inside To George Morley a gift from the baptist sunday school on 25th december 1915 but this it was published 1906.

 

Any ideas? Thank you

Late Victorian and early 20th century editions of Scott can be had for less than a tenner at second hand bookshops.

 

In fact, yours is available for a less.

 

Sorry to disappoint... I suspect the other one will be similar if you start chasing it.
