ENQUIRY INTO THE NATURE...WITH SEQUEL TO AN ENQUIRY With ...
by Carter, John and Graham Pollard
Limited to 80 numbered copies. The entire set is contained in a slipcase. Out of print on publication. The actual 1854 first edition by the Brownings which is enclosed was used as the model for which Wise and Forman based their forgeries. It, in itself, is becoming rare. This third volume is enclosed in a half leather slipcase which also contains the actual 1854 Browning first edition.
