1891 reprint from Riverside Press and Houghton, Mifflin, and Company. Many impressed illustrative designs throughout. A classic poem set in the Middle Ages about a knight who decides not to seek the Holy Grail. Though set in Middle Ages, it anachronistically describes American landscapes. There is some staining on the cover and on several pages some signature annotations on the front pages in pencil. Pages are slightly browning. Spine has some shelf wear and fading. Binding is in ok condition. The gold gilding on and around the cover is still quite good and barely shows any wear at all. Some very small tears on a few inner pages. Collectible poetry and illustrations from the 19th century.
