Tolstoy's War and Peace
Translated by Clara Bell, 1886
TOLSTOY, Leo (1828-1910) and BELL, Clara, translator (1835-1927). War and Peace. A Historical Novel. New York: William S. Gottsberger, 1886.
First edition in English of one of the monumental works of Russian literature. War and Peace is one of the great 19th-century novels in any language, and stands at the peak of the realist mode. Even Turgenev, whose quarrel with Tolstoy almost led to a duel, conceded that "nothing better has been written by anyone in Russia, and probably nothing so good has ever been written."
Six volumes, small octavo. (Light wear to a few hinges, two volumes with a few gatherings a little sprung, small chip to endpaper of vol 1.) Original decorated cloth (a hint of wear at spine ends); custom boxes.
