Paper-covered boards. Condición: Fine. First Edition of this scarce history, a "biographical and critical account of all dramatic writers from 1660 and also of the most distinguished performers from the days of Shakespeare to 1807, and a history of the country theatres." Complete in two volumes, paginated (somewhat irregularly) continuously. 12mo (173 x 101mm): xii, 622, 629-630; [3], 625-1048pp, with 17 engraved plates, comprising interior views of the three Theatres Royal and one of the exterior of the King's Theatre, Haymaket, as well as portraits of the author and leading actors and actresses.

The reviewer's charges included plagiarism ('The original matter would lay in as small a space as its author's brains') and inconsistency, since Gilliland now praised Kemble [whom he had earlier lambasted]."
