1850 Alton Locke, Tailor and Poet by Charles Kingsley, Antique Book, Harper & Brothers. Likely First American Edition

This 175-year-old autobiographical novel by Charles Kingsley follows Alton Locke, a working-class tailor and aspiring poet caught up in the Chartist movement of Victorian England. Blending politics, literature, and social reform, the story explores the struggles of idealism, class injustice, and personal ambition through a vividly drawn protagonist.

Overall fair condition:

• Cover: marks/soiling and wear/fraying at edges and corners (curled). Cloth bubbling a bit
• Spine: marks/soiling and wear/fraying at ends, small hole in along side
• Pages: expected foxing and age toning, folded corners and small tears
• Edges: age marks and darkening

Please see all pictures as well to help determine condition (zoom in).
