Oak Knoll

Limited edition of 40 numbered copies. The author begins with an address to the groom, saying that he decided to compile the following bibliographic notes on manuscripts of ethical philosophy conserved at the library of the University of Padua, on the occasion of the wedding. Lest this seem strange, the author vaguely notes his friend's connection to and love of such manuscript works before launching into his bibliographic essay and transcriptions of two of the texts treated. Loosely inserted is a commemorative book label that indicates that this volume came from the reference library of H.P. Kraus purchased by Oak Knoll Books at the auction sale. Irregularly faded on all pages.
