About This Item
[n.p.], 1848. About very good in contemporary half calf over brown marbled boards, rubbing to edges and corners, spine label missing from vol. I, prior owner bookplates removed, vol. I front hinge broken, some pages reinforced, others with cancels as apparently intended, and with minor foxing to some pages (as the leaves are in a variety of papers, some more susceptible to foxing than others).. An unpublished handwritten manuscript which appears to be a final draft of an ecclesiastical history of the English church, and which clearly takes issue with many of the teachings of the contemporary Catholic church. Written throughout in a clear hand and with extensive footnote citations to writers such as Bede, Gildas, Columba, and others.
The work appears to be an abridged compilation of many works (in a similar vein to F.G. Tomlin's History of England), with a significant portion of early chapters borrowing heavily (and verbatim) from Tindal's translation of Rapin de Thoyras's History of England.
A fascinating and unique work, which was clearly a labor of love and displays the author's work process. The manuscript holds many more unknowns for a researcher to discover.
Small 4to. 2 vols. [2], 136pp.; [1], 137-318pp. Written on rectos only, but with notes and revisions on many versos, and with many revisions tipped- or pasted-in.
