Smollett, Tobias Peregrine Pickle Vol. 1 And Vol. 2. EVERYMAN'S LIBRARY # 838-839 London J. M. Dent & Sons Limited 1930 First Edition Hard Cover Very Good No Jacket Ex-University Library FIRST EDITIONS EVERYMAN'S LIBRARY # 838 & 839. 2 VOLUME SET Introduction by Philip Henderson. "Smollett's second novel, his longest picaresque romance, is again redolent of the brutality and coarseness of the eighteenth century. In 'Peregrine Pickle,' writes Walter Allen in his introduction 'the parts are much better thant the whole. But how good some of the parts are! One feels they ought to bore us; they do not. And one reason they do not is the sheer speed of Smollett's prose; there never was a more energetic master of narrative.' Among the many diversions in the story are the adventures in France and the Low Countries, which Smollett toured in 1750" RG4 Very good green cloth. Gilt titles.
