Descripción del artículo del vendedor

4to., (10 4/8 x 8 inches). 6-page publisher's catalogue at end. Half-title, letter-press title-page. Additional engraved title-page with aquatint vignette, frontispiece (short marginal tears), plan of Philadelphia, tail-piece vignette, and 8 sepia-toned aquatint plates by M. Marigot (some browning, spotting and light marginal soiling). Contemporary tree calf gilt (rebacked preserving the original spine). Provenance: Contemporary ownership inscription partially obscured at head of the title-page. "OUR ONCE TRANS-ATLANTIC BRETHEREN, BUT NOW THE ONLY REMAINING REPUBLICANS IN THE CIVILISED WORLD" (Preface) First edition. "This large and most ill-arranged volume contains, apparently, whatever Mr. Janson could recollect of America, aiding his memory by a few notes and memorandums. He went to America with high expectations, engaged in several speculations, all of which failed, and after thirteen years' absence, returned to England, where, as many others have done since, he vented his spleen in writing a book" (Sabin recording the Monthly Review, LIII. 443). The beautiful plates include images of Mount Vernon, the Bank of the United States, Boston, and Philadelphia. Abbey Travel 648; Sabin 35770. Catalogued by Kate Hunter.
