Rare 1870 Love Poems of All Nations book with a stunning hardback (leather?) cover and intricate gold gilt design. The book includes love poems from poets like Emerson, Longfellow, Byron, Chaucer, Shakespeare, Plato, Goethe, and many more.
This book would make a wonderful gift for any book collector or poetry lover, a romantic anniversary gift, or a book to use as a wedding photo prop.
There is wear and discoloration to the cover, spine, and pages due to age. A little separation of the cover from the spine and what appears to be some water damage on the cover and first couple of pages. The book measures about 6.75" x 4.25" x .75".
