Description

Author (1840-1928) who takes a place among the towering figures of British literature with classic novels such as Far from the Madding Crowd and Tess of the d'Urbervilles. ANS signed “T. Hardy,” one page, 4.25 x 3.5, no date. Handwritten note to an unidentified recipient: “Do you remember our climb into the 'Isle,’ & that appetizing bread & cheese, like a brickbat? Hoping to see you soon I am always yours.” In fine condition.

From the personal collection of a lifelong collector, teacher, and traveler with a passion for world history. His collecting years ranged from the 1970s to the present day, meaning that several of the premier pieces have not been on the market in decades.
