About This Item

London: Printed for I. Taylor, 1778. Second revised. Hardcover. Very Good. 9" x 11". From the title page: 'A New Edition, Revised and Corrected by the Author'. A very rare edition of this important work. I have not been able to identify any other copies of this particular edition. Very Good, in contemporary full calf binding with some scuffing and wear to boards. 'John Cole Portsmouth' written on title page, and a small inscription on verso flyleaf, otherwise very clean internals with very little foxing. Detailed digital images available upon request.
