Forsythe, Evelyn, ed.

Ye Gestes of Ye Ladye Anne: A marvellous pleasaunt and comfortable tayle. Illustrated by A. Hennen Broadwood.

      London: Field & Tuer, Ye Leadenhalle PresseÉNew York: Scribner & WelfordÉ [n.d.]. - This is a scarce book: OCLC lists eight copies, five in America. Small quarto. [8], 105, [3, ads] pp. Text illustrations. Printed parchment over wrappers, lightly soiled. Two inch split along front joint. Very good. The text was edited by Evelyn Forsyth from a manuscript produced by Griffith Boan in Carlisle, Cumbria, in 1512. The material is an old tale, which Boan states he got from a "very aged chronicle," found by him at the Chapel of Ludlow Castle in Shropshire. We could find no other immediately recognizable versions of this tale. [Attributes: Soft Cover]
