FROUDE, James Anthony.
History of England from the fall of Wolsey to the defeat of the Spanish Armada.
London, John W. Parker and Son, 1856.
Froude (1818-1894) was Regius Professor of Modern History at the University of Oxford from 1892 until his death, succeeding his great adversary E.A. Freeman, who had done much to discredit Froude's reputation as a serious historian.
12 vols; 8vo (22.5 x 15 cm); light spotting, occasional fold marks and the odd closed tear; contemporary half green morocco by E.J. Would of London, marbled boards ruled in gilt, gilt spine in 6 compartment, top-edges gilt, others rough trimmed, a little rubbed with minor loss, very good.
