Authors At Work
By Charles Pebody
Published by Wm. H. Allen: London 1872 1st Edition
Scarce 1st Edition

" This engaging Victorian volume by Charles Pebody provides an intimate glimpse into the working habits, inspirations, and peculiarities of celebrated literary figures. Pebody explores how great writers conceived, composed, and refined their works, offering anecdotes and observations that illuminate both the art and discipline of authorship. Drawing from correspondence, memoirs, and first-hand accounts, he captures the contrasting temperaments and creative environments that shaped the literary masterpieces of the 18th and 19th centuries.

Beautifully bound in full calf with gilt tooling, raised bands, marbled endpapers, and the crest of St. Columba's College gilt-stamped to the cover, this copy reflects the craftsmanship and scholarly reverence of its era. A fine collectible for those intrigued by literary history, Victorian book design, and the private lives of the authors whose words helped define English literature."
