I have endeavoured in this Ghostly little book to raise the Ghost of an Idea which shall not put my readers out of humour with them-selves, with each other, with the season, or with me. May it haunt their house pleasantly, and no one wish to lay it.
Their faithful Friend and Servant,
December, 1843

Light rubbing to cover edges and spine ends. Bottom corner bumped. A few very tiny spots on front cover otherwise clean. Gilt is unusually clear and bright. Small amount of foxing to endpapers but pages are clean and unmarked and binding sound. All pages and plates are present.
