About This Item
[[London, c. 1720]. Hardback. 12mo (20cm by 12cm), 448pp. 18th-century binding of full brown calf with Cambridge panelling. Please note that this book is in poor condition; it lacks the preliminary pages (the book starts with page 1, the first text page) and there is some light staining to a handful of pages at the back of the book. The binding is intact but worn (the joint are cracking, and there is some loss of leather at the foot of the spine). I am not certain of the exact edition (as the title page is lacking), but the book collates as the 1720 edition.
