Internally neat, clean and tight. In its original, edge worn, dust jacket. (Striking frontispiece, from a portrait by Thomas Patch, showing Laurence Sterne Disowning Death - Tristram Shady, VII, 1). A detailed biography of the last decade or so of Sterne's life - the years during which the eccentric vicar, who until then had largely lived quietly in Yorkshire, unknown and unremarked, burst upon the world as a writer. These were the years of Yorick, Sterne's literary alter ego. Approx 8.5 inches tall. 8vo.
