Description

8vo., First Edition, on laid paper, with frontispiece, 6 full-page illustrations and a full-page plan in the text; original pictorial wrappers, wire-stitched as issued, a near fine copy. The first appearance of Gowing's history, the humble format of which belies its content. The work has been successively expanded and reissued several times but never with such charm as in this first version. EXTREMELY SCARCE. Powell p.258
