Cloth-backed boards, 8vo, lviii, 758 pp. From the introduction: "The Library of Anthony Wood is a record in alphabetical order of all the letterpress that Anthony Wood owned. The main body of this catalogue gives general bibliographical descriptions of and distinctive details about Wood's personal copies The introduction and a series �f appendices summarise and isolate information found in the entries.My major objective is to determine why, when, and how Wood acquired printed items, what he acquired and how he organized, bound, read, annotated, and disposed of them. Hence details about the provenance, the completeness and condition of each printed item, of the binding, and of Wood's annotations are included in each entry. The second objective is to provide an accurate catalogue of all the books that he owned." Near Fine.
