Descripción

First edition. Quarto (27 x 22cm). 'Ambitious in its contents, if not in its intention. The book is encyclopaedic in its scope, and pays tribute to Towne's literary acquirements by the length and variety of its quotations from earlier writers.'- Fussell. pp. [iv],5-720. With a frontispiece & 20 engraved plates. A handsome copy bound in contemporary tree calf, the spine in six compartments, gilt, very neatly re-hinged, the plates a little foxed. A comparatively scarce work with only five UK library locations. VG. [Perkins 1758; Fussell III, 122; Huth 162; BMC 25, 356].
