Stories from the Italian Poets, with Lives of the Writers

By Leigh Hunt. 1846. Baudry's European Library. Hardcover. Condition: Very Good.

Book in remarkably good condition given its age. Former library copy with library binding. Rather an odd project: plot summaries of major Italian works, with information about the lives of the authors, such as Dante, Tasso, Ariosto, etc. Similar old hardbacks selling for $45-200 on Abebooks.
