Very good book in bevelled edge finely stippled maroon buckram covers with bright gilt titles and black 'art nouveau' decoration to front and gilt titles to spine. This would seem to be a subsequent rebind using the original covers. Internally very good and free of inscriptions; delightfully illustrated with text illustrations but more particularly with copies of Livesey's sepia engravings from the original 1782 edition; there are 14 sepia engravings including a fold-out frontispiece; bound in is a page from a sale catalogue describing a copy of the 1782 edition; some foxing and tanning to end papers but little elsewhere; Introduction xivpp + 42pp. The book records the spur of the moment decision by Hogarth and his friends to leave London and wander round the Isle of Sheppey for three or four days in late May 1732. A record of 'the frolic' was only made for the amusement of a small circle of friends and only became available to the general public fifty years later with Livesey's rare 1782 edition. This is a very acceptable copy of the 1872 issue by Hotten which is also scarce.…
