Good Elizabeth Barrett Browning: Poems from the last London edition corrected by the author. 1862

This two-volume set of 160-old books is in exceptional condition! Only slight wear on the covers and around the end papers. Otherwise the books are tightly bound and very usable. They seem to hold most of her major works. See photo of contents pages for each volume. This book was published the year after the author's death in Italy, and is an American First Edition. Each Volume is inscribed in pencil with "Miss Mary F. Kershaw, Sept. 1862."--see photo. It is possible that I have misread the name.
