Six Essays on Johnson by Walter Raleigh, 1927, published by The Clarendon Press, Oxford. Hardback, 184 pages

This vintage literary history hardback is in fairly good condition - the cover has some wear and rubbing; the back cover has some discolouration. The very top of the spine has a defect.
Inside there is a school plate on the inside front cover and there is an ink number on the front flysheet.
The top corners have a slight thumbprint crease and pages 155-161 have small dog-ears at the bottom corner.
