The Complete Poetical Works of Elizabeth Barrett Browning From 1826 to 1844
Edited With A Memoir by John H. Ingram
Published By Ward, Lock & Co Limited: London c1910 (undated)

"Elizabeth Barrett Browning (née Moulton-Barrett; 6 March 1806 - 29 June 1861) was an English poet of the Victorian era, popular in Britain and the United States during her lifetime. Born in County Durham, the eldest of 12 children, Elizabeth Barrett wrote poetry from the age of eleven. Her mother's collection of her poems forms one of the largest extant collections of juvenilia by any English writer. At 15, she became ill, suffering intense head and spinal pain for the rest of her life. Later in life, she also developed lung problems, possibly tuberculosis. She took laudanum for the pain from an early age, which is likely to have contributed to her frail health."

General wear, tape repairs and some damage to dustjacket as shown. Cover is in very good condition despite some raising of the cloth on the back. Pages are very clean, crisp and bright. Interestingly the dust jacket refers to an introduction by Alice Meynell and a portrait - neither of which are present - there is a memoir by John H. Ingram not Alice Meynell! Please study photos to understand condition. Happy to provide more photos on request.
