. Twenty volume set. Vols. 1-17 second edition, vols. 18-20, first edition. These volumes were published between 1727-35. Folio, over 15000 pages, illustrated with plates. Rebacked in contemporary calf over original worn leather boards; gilt lettering to spines. Thomas Rymer, a classical scholar, produced vols. I-XVI of this work. His assistant Robert Sanderson completed the final four volumes. In brief, the work is a record of all 'leagues, treaties, alliances, capitulations, and confederacies' made between the Crown of England and other kingdoms, princes, and states up to the time of publication. The second edition volumes contain many corrections and was published under the editiorship of George Holmes, Deputy Keeper of the Tower Records. Some edge-wear and rubbing to boards of each volume. Several bumped corners, with corresponding fraying. Some insect damage to the first several leaves of vol. XIII, light foxing as per usual. There are occasional older damp stains, although non-intrusive. Ex-library with minimal markings (small stamp to title page of most volumes). Overall, a very solid and sound set.
