Thomas Carlyle. A Descriptive Bibliography.

1989. Pittsburgh: University of Pittsburgh Press, 1989.

Thick 8vo, 543 [1]pp. Original dark blue buckram, stamped in gilt to top board and backstrip; illustrated throughout by means of facsimiles within the text. Photocopy of a review from the Bibliographical Society of America loosely inserted. Near fine.

§ First edition. While more limited in scope than Dyer’s earlier work on the subject (Tarr restricts himself to the writings of Carlyle, with a few exceptions), Tarr’s volume is easy to use, and accessible, making great use of Tarr’s encyclopedic knowledge.
