Item description from seller

8vo, (175mm.), xii,(13-)103p. Contemporary (?original) quarter sheep, backstrip banded in gilt, French-shell marbled paper sides, worn - particularly at the corners, previous owner's signature (of Sarah Langton) on the front free endleaf. "I have been so fortunate, during a long course of teaching, as to give my pupils a true relish for the Study of History.' (Author's preface.) First published in 1819 this example of juvenile historical literature ran to a number on editions until the 1890s. The chronology of the text ends in 1830 while the 'chronological chart' mentioned in the title is not present in the British Library copy of the 1819 edition where it is noted that their copy is also 'without the chart' (as apparently are other editions listed on Library Hub) and therefore it may have been issued separately.

Store description

We are located some 20 minutes drive from the M6, Junction 38 and therefore only a 20 mile detour from the main England-Scotland route. Appleby is a town well worth a visit, the coffee pot is always on though refreshment with ¿a little more authority' can be had if the Crown & Cushion in the town's market square is open! Our Bookroom is open by appointment. We will be happy to send pdf copies of our catalogue by email.
