Ward (1667-1731) war ein englischer Satiriker und Schankwirt. Sein erfolgreichstes Werk war "The London Spy". Fast alle späteren Veröffentlichungen trugen, wie auch hier, den Vermerk "by Eward Ward, Author of the London Spy". Der hier vorliegende erste Teil der "Nuptial Dialogues" enthält 32 gereimte Zwiegespräche von Ehepartnern, die alle möglichen Fährnisse, Vergehen und Reibereien des Ehelebens abhandeln. Am Ende jeden Dialogs finden sich "Moral Reflections" in sechs Vierzeilern. - Durchgehend etwas gebräunt und stockfleckig, die ersten und letzten Seiten in den Rändern durch das Einbandleder etwas bräunlich verfärbt. Eine Seite mit Einriss (ca. 3 cm), Seite 233/234 fehlt.

Ned Ward , who wrote under the pseudonym "Author of the London Spy" was a writer and publican of the King's Head near Gray's Inn who was popular as much for his wit and humour as well as his excellent ale.Although Ward had travelled to the West Indies as a young man, it is thought that he wrote this work based on observations of naval types in his inn. First published in 1707 in the year Sir Cloudesley Shovell and his fleet were wrecked off the Scillies with the loss of 2000 lives in what was the greatest naval disaster of the times, the book became very popular.

Soft cover. Condition: Fair. ] 12mo (4 7/8 x 7 3/16 inches), paper wrappers/self-cover (??), 56 total pages, Fair to Good condition. Fragile item, seems complete in sewn binding, though front cover almost fully detached w/ a small bit held by the center stitch. Back cover stitching (seen easily in one of the photos) holding very well. Condition beyond the first leaf overall rather decent. The second leaf has page number (3} printed in the top margin. Last leaf (back cover?) has the page number (56) printed in the top margin as well as F I N I S printed beneath the last line of type. No pages missing and since 56 pages this would be the 1720 printing (??) and with 2 parts combined (??) - however I am rather only speculating on the basis of a little research. This 56-page item is housed in a (circa 1920s, 1930s or 1940s ??) hardback tri-fold in brick red cloth, and in a slim matching brick red hardback slipcase (12mo, 5 3/8 x 7 3/4 inches) that features gilt titling in a maroon leather panel on the end opposite the open end (that end being quite tanned though the gilt titling and maroon leather remain quite nice). Initials at the heel of spine beneath the titling that I would read as ITE.
