First edition. x, 374pp. In jet black cloth-covered boards with silver titles on spine. 8vo. Upper text block edge very slightly toned. In its original paper dust wrapper, very lightly bumped along upper edge. Anne Wharton, born on the eve of the Restoration and dying within a year of the accession of James II, had only one of her poems published in her lifetime - an elegy on her notorious uncle, the poet Rochester. Here are collected together her known surviving works, together with a biography, albeit she remains a shadowy figure, textual and critical analysis of her works and a series of letters to Anne etc.
