St Mary's Books is proud to present "The Poetical Works of William Wordsworth" housed in a Rugby School binding. Handsomely presented in royal blue leather with a simple gold gilt border, intricate gilt decorations to the spine, and a red leather title band with gold gilt lettering, this hardback book features the Rugby School crest on the front board in gold gilt. A beautiful red, white, and blue marbled pattern features on the edges of this book, and continues inside on the free endpaper, which has a "Scholae Rugbeiensis Alumno" paste-down. Inside, one finds i-xxxix and 744 pages of text, providing an anthology of Wordsworth's poems. This copy is in very good condition - other than a small tear on the front board, the 1913 paste-down on the free endpaper, the minor foxing on the prelims pages, and that the marbled design on the edges has faded - this copy remains otherwise well-preserved. "Wordsworth's Poetical Works" is looking for a new home and would make for the perfect gift for any poetry lover.
