Collated: Complete, with one plate and pages 152-160 misnumbered. A fascinating volume, containing a great amount information regarding the history of Judaism and their existence in America, Africa, Palestine and more. Uncommon in any edition or condition. Nathaniel Crouch was an English printer and bookseller who wrote under the pseudonym Richard Burton, or R.B. He was considered a poor historian, borrowing heavily from other works and publishing them as his own works under his imprint. He was widely denounced by historians of the following centuries, including Samuel Butler and Alexander Pope, although he is now regarded as a figure of interest in the development of historiography. Rebound in a cloth binding. Externally, very smart with just some light rubbing to the spine and boards. Internally, firmly bound. Pages age toned with with moderate spotting and wear to the top and fore edge. Title page and plate laid down. Title page foxed, with heavy repairs. Pages close trimmed to the top edge, not affecting main body of the text. Good.…
