Description: G J Whyte-Melville - Bones and I or the Skeleton at Home - 1880 reprint published by Chapman and Hall Reprint, eighth thousand. 287 pages + 8 of ads. In yellowback format, undated but circa 1880. The book is firmly bound in the original illustrated glazed boards, which are somewhat stained, chipped, bumped and rubbed. The text block is slightly toned, foxed and dusty, with a neatly written ownership inscription, a W. H. Smith blind-stamp to the front endpaper, slight cracking at points and a few dog-eared page corners. A loosely arranged collection of stories and reflections, couched in the form of conversations between a reclusive man and his skeletal companion, including rather a good story about a seductive female vampire. Hugely popular in the late-Victorian period and reprinted numerous times in various formats, but relatively uncommon in this fragile yellowback guise.
