Numbers 525, 526 and 527 from Dent's Everyman's Library. War and Peace is a vast epic centred on Napoleon's war with Russia. While it expresses Tolstoy's view that history is an inexorable process which man cannot influence, he peoples his great novel with a cast of over five hundred characters.
Condition
The books are in strong readable condition. There is some tanning and light foxing to the page edges but the main body of text is clean and the bindings are secure. The dustwrappers are good. There is fading to the spines and wear to the spine ends with slight loss. All three wrappers are now within protective sleeves.
