Gulliver's Travels Into Remote Regions Of The World
By Jonathan Swift
Published by George Routledge And Sons Limited: London c1900 (undated - prize plated dated 1903)
Presentation Prize Binding From Way College Adelaide

" This attractive early twentieth-century edition of Gulliver's Travels Into Remote Regions of the World, published by George Routledge & Sons around 1900, presents Jonathan Swift's timeless satirical masterpiece in a richly illustrated and highly presentable format. The volume includes vivid chromolithograph plates—such as the colourful depiction of Gulliver bound by the Lilliputians—which bring the novel's fantastical voyages to life for a new generation of readers. Swift's sharp commentary on politics, human nature and society remains as resonant today as when first published in 1726, and this edition preserves the full text in a clear and engaging layout.

The book is beautifully bound in contemporary prize binding from Adelaide's Way College, featuring dark blue polished half-leather with elaborate gilt decoration to the spine and gilt armorial crest to the upper board. Additional touches—including gilt turn-ins, marbled edges, and handsome marbled endpapers—underscore the quality of the binding. The award label to the front endpaper is dated 1903, confirming this as a school prize copy presented for academic achievement, which adds both charm and provenance.

Well-produced, visually appealing and steeped in historical character, this edition is ideal for collectors of classic literature, enthusiasts of decorative prize bindings, and admirers of Swift's celebrated satirical adventure."
