GOBINEAU Joseph Arthur, Count of. Ternove. Brussels, Tarride, 1848; 3 vol. in-12 of 144 pp, 136 pp, 148 pp, slightly later bindings half aubergine morocco with corners, spine ribbed and decorated, gilt heads, covers and spine. First edition. The author's third novel. "It is a curious novel of history and love, not devoid of irony, teeming with welcome psychological traits, quite worthy of the "Pléiades", which more than once brings to mind "La Chartreuse de Parme", and whose failure is hard to explain". (Émile Henriot). A fine copy with the fragile yellow covers preserved. Carteret I, 344: "A work of great rarity".
