In all time of our tribulation : the story of Piers Gavestone
London : John F. Shaw and Co., [1887]. 383pp.
Item #8127
An historical novel about Gavestone, the favorite of King Edward II. It was alleged by medieval chroniclers that Edward II and Piers Gaveston were lovers, a rumour that was reinforced by later portrayals in fiction, such as Christopher Marlowe's late 16th-century play Edward II.
An uncommon book, very good in illustrated boards, with light wear.
Price: $100.00
