Description
The title page and its woodcut ornament printed entirely in red; the title page possibly a cancel, or very skilfully re-hinged, minor repair to title and first text leaf without loss, the lower section of the final leaf [N7] torn away and replaced without loss of letters, very small holes at the margins of five leaves not affecting text, clean chips from outer margins of a few leaves without loss of letters but almost touching the text on one [M10], stain at margins of last few pages of text and the 'Table' not affecting letters, some light mainly marginal spotting and staining. pp. 301, [1], 12mo; attractively bound in early nineteenth-century full red morocco, covers with triple gilt fillet, spine gilt lettered direct with gilt fleurons in compartments between five raised bands, Dutch gilt endpapers, gilt edges; joints tender, spine lightly faded, later free endpapers; from the library of Anthony Eden (no marks of ownership).
