Collates complete with 8 engravings, including an engraved frontis, engraved title page, and six other full-page engravings. Contains a FORE EDGE PAINTING showing an old English village scene with a monument on a hill on the left adn the roofs of a crowded village or town below on the right.

The painting is a bit dulled and certainly looks old.
