Descripción

In 8 (cm 12 x 19), pp. 304. Brossura editoriale con qualche danno e mancanze ai piatti. Seconda edizione della traduzione italiana della scrittrice inglese Dinah Muloch. Di lei e del romanzo cosi' scrissero alcune riviste inglesi: "John Halifax is one of the noblest stories among modern works of fiction. The interest of the story is enthralling, the characters admirably sustained, and the moral excellent"; "John Halifax, the hero of this most beautiful story, is no ordinary hero, and this his history is no ordinary book. It is a full-length portrait of a true gentleman, one of nature's own nobility. It is also the history of a home, and a thoroughly English one. The work abounds in incident, and many of the scenes are full of graphic power and true pathos. It is a book that few will read without becoming wiser and better".
