First edition.. iv, [1], 14-448pp [i.e.248pp]. With an engraved frontispiece referencing the story of 'Maria: An affecting Narrative', contained within the text of the volume. Contemporary sheep, rubbed and worn, with splitting to joints, loss to spine and extremities, boards holding by binding cords. Paper flaw to H5 without lo…ss of sense. Contemporary ink inscription dated June 27th 1781 to FFEP. A rare compilation of short works of fiction, and otherwise, in prose and verse, arranged by the semi-reclusive English author and translator William Henry Melmoth (bap. 1710, d. 1799). Notable inclusions are 'The Ghost, the 'Remarkable Life of a Strolling Player, written by himself' and 'New and genuine Anecdotes of Dean Swift', amongst a wealth of other pieces apparently sourced from contemporary literary periodicals. ESTC has two records of what appear to be duodecimo editions of the same work, albeit one with a cancel title (entitled The Modern universal story-teller. and likely a reissue of the sheets of this work). Both are rare, with this edition only held at Cambridge, Oxford and Pennsylvania. The dating of this volume, conjectured from the dates of Alexander Hogg's Pasternoster Row presence at 14 and 16 Paternoster Row, is relatively well substantiated by the inscription in this volume, and the advertisement, to the verso of the title of this volume, of The New Art of Speaking, which has also been tentatively conjectured to 1780. ESTC T206699. Size: 12mo.
