From the pristine dust jacket: "THE TWO FORGERS describes the lives and career of two very different men who came together in one of the greatest frauds in the history of book collecting. Harry Buxton Forman worked in the late Victorian era in the Post Office, rising to be Comptroller of Packet services. In his spare time he was a serious literary scholar who edited Keats and Shelley. Thomas James Wise was a commodity dealer in a firm which specialized in essential oils He was also one of the most influential book collectors of his generation, and President of the Bibliographical Society. This fascinating book describes how Wise and Forman joined forces in a conspiracy to forge a wide range of first editions of Victorian authors. The course of this conspiracy is traced and is related to each man's biography. THE TWO FORGERS also contains an account of the sensational unmasking of the plot in 1934. It re-tells a remarkable passage of literary history and re-interprets it in the light of recent research.". First Edition. Hardcover.

From the blurb - "The Two Forgers describes the lives and careers of two very different men who came together in one of the greatest frauds in the history of book collecting. Harry Buxton Forman worked in the late Victorian era in the Post Office, rising to be Comptroller of Packet Se…rvices. In his spare time he was a serious literary scholar who edited Keats and Shelley. Thomas James Wise was a commodity dealer in a firm which specialized in essential oils (used mainly in perfumery and for flavouring). He was also one of the most influential book collectors of his generation, and President of the Bibliographical Society. This fascinating book describes how Wise and Forman joined forces in a conspiracy to forge a wide range of first editions of Victorian authors. The course of this conspiracy is traced and is related to each man's biography. The Two Forgers also contains an account of the sensational unmasking of the plot in 1934. It re-tells a remarkable passage of literary history and re-interprets it in the light of recent research." Inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper "T.S. from J.C. with affection", the presentee being Tanya (Tatyana) Schmoller. Near Fine in a Very Good dustwrapper.
