These first two volumes cover the time from July 31, 1793, when he visited Horace Walpole at Strawberry Hill, to August 31, 1796. Apart from recording his constant involvement in Academy business, he describes his visit to Valenciennes and his sketching tour for the History of the River Thames. Such matters as the sale of part of Sir Joshua Reynolds’s collection, the controversies over the Shakespeare forgeries are set down against the background of the French Revolution and the war, and of political turbulence at home. The diary is now for the first time published in full. The unannotated text will be published in successive volumes with a full index and a final volume, A Companion to The Farington Diary, to follow.

Terms of sale
Pictures
All images in my listings show the actual book being sold. Just after a listing is uploaded, ABE may show a "stock image". Stock images are often incorrect
Images showing Contents pages are optimised for clarity and are not a reliable guide to page size or condition.
Pagination
Paginations (page counts) in my listings show the number of pages actually in the book rather than the last printed page number.
ISBN Numbers
ISBN numbers are not a reliable way of identifying books, beyond author, title and publisher. Books published before 1971 do not have ISBN numbers at all. ISBN numbers in my listings show the number actually printed in the book or dust-jacket.
Right of withdrawal
