Revised and elucidated by Victor Hugo Palsits. 8vo. Pp. xxxvi, 187. with some-20 illustrations, many reproducing title pages of important works. Index. One of 1,000 copies, designed by John Archer. The form of Stevens' work was the outgrowth of a paper he presented, initially published in 1883 in "Transactions and Proceedings of the Library Association of the United Kingdom." This iteration is a handsome production, and benefits from the notes and supplementary information provided by Palsits.
