About this Item

First edition with bookplate of the Earl of Donegall. Identified by the use of the long s form and online comparison. The book lacks the title page and all preliminary pages. Starts on page 1. Contains full text. The book has a contemporary leather rebacking retaining the original boards. The end papers have been renewed and have a cloth reinforcement for additional strength. Boards rubbed and scuffed. Loss to original leather has been skilfully replaced with leather. Inside, new end papers and original armorial plate on inside cover. Hole and slight loss to top corners of first three pages. Loss to final page with some loss to text, most of which can be read as it is mostly the heading of columns repeated from the page facing.
