Four Years in France

or Narrative of an English Family's Residence There During That Period;

Preceded by some Account of the Conversion of the Author to the Catholic Faith

[By Henry Digby Beste]

1826 - London - Henry Colburn

8.5" by 5.25", [xvi] 443pp.

 

DETAILS

Bound in quarter leather with marble paper-covered boards.

Henry Digby Beste (1768-1836) was born in Brighton and became a deacon in the Anglican church but after experiencing some spiritual doubts he converted to Catholicism and became a regular contributor to many Catholic periodicals.

Originally published anonymously this is Beste's account of four years in France with his family. Later he went on to also live in Italy and wrote the volume, Italy as it is, or, Narrative of an English Family's Residence for Three Years in that Country.

CONDITION

The binding is tight and firm with the boards and all internal pages securely attached. There is some wear to the extremities including rubbing, marks to the boards, cracking to the spine and bumping to the corners. There is a small circular paper sticker to the front board and a small amount of what looks like stamp paper stuck to the rear.  Internally the pages are generally clean and bright with the occasional brown spot or handling mark. There is a bookplate on the front pastedown from Priory of Our Lady of Good Council, Hayward's Heath and the half title has this ink stamped onto the page twice. The front blank endpaper has a copperplate inscription. Overall, the condition of this volume is good only.
