Description

Sir Walter Scott comments on Lord Byron

ALS signed “Walter Scott,” one page, 7.25 x 6.25, no date. Letter concerning a quarrel between Lord Byron and Samuel Rogers. In part: “I never heard Rogers say a single word against Byron—which is rather odd too. He had brought Byron, Campbell & Moore together. Campbell did not take to the poetic Lord—and left the company early—Moore and Byron commenced their friendship…Byron made a bitter and undeserved satire on Rogers.” An old auction description clipping is affixed to the blank upper margin. In very good condition, with intersecting folds and mounting remnants to reverse. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
