The Zincali; or, An Account of the Gypsies of Spain [bound with] The Bible in Spain; or, the Journeys, Adventures, and Imprisonments of an Englishman

Descripción

Octavo. Campbell & Co's edition of Borrow's Works. Two works bound in one volume. vi, 7-148; 232pp. In the original publisher's quarter cloth and plain boards with a printed spine label. Overall wear to the boards and spine, the front joint is split, scattered foxing to the first work, good. A scarce edition of Borrows' two most noted works. The first work appears to be an abridgment (the first American edition was published in New York by Wiley and Putnam in 1842); the second work is the ninth edition. Borrow's account of the Gypsies of Spain is accompanied by a vocabulary of their language, and another section on the "Miscellanies in the Gitano Language," with samples of the Romani language and parallel English translations.
