Windsor Castle by William Harrison Ainsworth (1844) hardcover book
William Harrison Ainsworth - Windsor Castle, A Romance
London: Henry Colburn, 1844. Illustrated one-volume edition (preceded by first edition published in three volumes in 1843--also by Henry Colburn). Hardcover. Octavo. 3/4 calf binding over marbled boards. 324 pp. Illustrated by George Cruikshank and Tony Johanot. Woodcut designs by W. A. Delamottte. Engraved frontispiece, 18 plate etchings, and 3 wood-engraved plates. Good condition. Leather is rubbed along joints and edges with minor surface excoriation to covers. Foxing on preliminary pages up to (but not past) title page. Incipient slackening to final signature (pp. 303-324); binding is otherwise sure.
Windsor Castle recounts Henry the VIII's romantic quest for Anne Boleyn with an invented poltergeist twist--though many insist the ghost of Anne Boleyn haunts Windsor Castle to this day.
