Each volume measures 18.5 x 12.5 cm. Agnes Strickland's Lives of the Queens of England (first published 1840-8) marked a new era in the writing of English history by women. These historical biographies were based on pioneering manuscript research. Agnes Strickland may have been the public figurehead of this work, but her sister Elisabeth, who lived in seclusion, was Agnes's collaborator, undertaking much of the writing and research. Very good condition. Some wear externally, and some scattered foxing internally, but binding firm and a good looking set on the shelf. 1869 ownership inscription of one Emma North to endpaper of V.1.
