Three-quarter burgundy leather with five raised spine bands, marbled boards and endpapers; gilt top edges. This book is widely regarded as one of the three most important science fiction novels of the early 19th Century, the other two being Frankenstein, and The Last Man, both by Mary Shelley. Like Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Jane Webb (later Mrs. Jane C. Loudon) wrote and had her novel published at a young age; she was only twenty when it was published. One of the most sought-after early science fiction novels, a legendary rarity. Listed in Bleiler, Clarke, Clute \u0026amp; Nicholls, Locke, Negley, Schlobin, Sargent, Reginald, and others. Three-quarter leather with green marbled cloth.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"details\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"heading\"\u003eBook Condition: \u003c\/span\u003eFair: A copy with spine loss to leather bands and wear at exterior spine hinges; binding intact.
