Kingsley, Charles

Phaethon; Or, Loose Thoughts for Loose Thinkers

Cambridge: Macmillan, 1852. First printing. Hardcover. 8vo, in full deep red morocco by Zaehnsdorf, but spine now covered in matching plain red cloth, minor strengthening to front inner hinge, so a very good copy in all but not to be bought as a fine binding. Bookplate of M. C. D. Borden (1842-1912), the "Calico King," the owner and founder of a textile printing company in Fall River, MA that was the largest cloth printing company in the world at the time. 100 pp. A dialogue in the vein of Plato. Very Good. Item #H16851
