Scarce in the dust jackets. A fine example of the first edition of Constance Garnett's translation of Dead Souls, with the incredibly scarce dust jackets. Garnett had previously translated works by Dostoevsky, Turgenev, Tolstoy and Chekhov, all to great acclaim, before turning her attention to Gogol, one of the 'fountain-heads of Russian literature'.
First edition of the Garnett translation, first impression; 2 vols, 8vo; two leaves opened roughly; publisher's blue cloth, titles to spines gilt, top edges green, dust jackets which are slightly tanned, fine copies.
