Frank Harris — Montes the Matador
London , Grant Richards, 1900. First edition. Cloth. A first edition of Frank Harris' Montes the Matador and Other Stories. An early work of Harris', he was best known for his flamboyant lifetstyle, editorship of various notable Victorian publications and his memoir My Life and Loves. In cloth binding with gilt detailing. Externally sound, there is some markings to the boards and backstrip, as well as some wear to the extremities and more significantly so to the joints. There is also a closed tear to the fabric of the backstrip and the hinges are tender. Internally, the binding is tender but holding throughout, and the pages are generally bright and clean aside from some foxing to the endpages and the odd spot. Good . Ill.: None. Good .
