FIRST EDITION, 3 vols., 8vo, pp. [iv], 387, [1]; [iv], 415, [1]; [iv], 359, [1, ad]. Contemporary half calf, marbled boards, spines divided by gilt rolls, black morocco labels, 4th compartments lettered in gilt direct, other compartments tooled centrally in gilt, edges speckled red. A touch of spotting. A little rubbed, some wear to extremities, first two volumes sometime rebacked, vol. 2 retaining earlier spine, vol. 3 joints splitting but cords holding. Armorial bookplates of John Drummond to pastedowns. The first edition of Ferrier?s second novel, which echoes her contemporary Jane Austen?s Pride and Prejudice with its opening line: ?It is a truth, universally acknowledged, that there is no possession so deeply rooted in human nature as that of pride? ?The Inheritance was enthusiastically received; Scott, Henry Mackenzie and his daughters, Francis Jeffrey, Basil Hall, and the Argyll family all expressed their delight. Her friends were able to recognize James Ferrier in the character of Uncle Adam Ramsay, and others who read the novel enjoyed speculating on the identity of the characters. ?Everybody knows who the characters are, but no two people can agree about them. I have heard of five or six Lord Rossvilles and as many Miss Pratts? (Ferrier, Memoir, 180). Appreciation of the work was not confined to Scotland; an American edition and a French translation both appeared in 1824 and a Swedish translation in 1836? (ODNB). Wolff 2235.
