Bound without the 2 page publisher's advertisement before the frontispiece of volume I as called for by Sadleir and Wolfe. Spine ends and corners bruised, a few knocks to extremities, boards marked and spines a little faded, 2 hinges partly cracked but holding very firm, contents evenly lightly browned, a very good set. First edition of one of the most popular and polarising "Newgate" novels, accompanied by some of Cruikshank's best illustrative work. One of these versions introduced the hit song of the season 'Nix my Dolly, Pals' , based on a 'flash song' of criminal slang that Ainsworth had written for Rookwood.

But Jack Sheppard also provoked criticism. John Forster attacked it in The Examiner for glorifying criminals, William Makepeace Thackeray did the same in his novel Catherine, and there were even suggestions that the notorious murder committed by Courvoisier in had been inspired by a reading of Ainsworth's novel" ODNB.

Ainsworth and Cruikshank's collaborative relationship, which began with Ainsworth's first novel Rookwood , would continue over the next decade as the popular illustrator provided wood-engraved and steel-etched plates for several more of Ainsworth's historical novels. It is considered some of Cruikshank's finest work: "he regularly honours Ainsworth with a careful minuteness and polish of execution he had accorded to no earlier author, certainly not Dickens.

And the results of this prolonged careful devotion to 'effect' can be very fine in the richly dense gatherings of shadow, and the glimmerings and percolations of light that break out here and there in clear gleams" Patten, p. Carrie Estelle Doheny's library in Camarillo, California "represented one of the rarest book libraries in the United States. Within the collection, 4, volumes were rare books and first editions. Fifteen hundred of the volumes were comprised of autograph letters and important historical and literary manuscripts.

Early vellum manuscripts such as bibles, gospels, commentaries, liturgical works, and ornamented books revealed the prominence of the collection" Cheung, p. Sadleir 14; Wolfe See H.
