Daisy Miller by Henry James, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. Henry James's 1878 novella follows Frederick Winterbourne, an American living in Europe, who meets the pretty, carefree Daisy Miller at a Swiss resort. Her innocent flouting of social conventions in Rome scandalises the American expatriate community, and Winterbourne cannot decide what to make of her. A sharp study of manners and misunderstanding.
About this leather-bound edition
We cover every book in genuine leather by hand, finishing the spine with gold-tone foil titling and decorative tooling in the tradition of fine library bindings. Because each copy is made individually, small variations in leather grain and colour are a natural sign of handwork.
The thickness and weight of the finished book depend on the length of this particular title. Longer works make a noticeably thicker volume, while shorter works are slimmer.
