First edition, 8vo, pp. xxiv, [4], 432; largely unopened; 2 engraved plates (1 folding, and bound in upside down); original blue paper-covered boards, cream paper shelfback, manuscript title on spine; extremities rubbed and worn, boards a bit soiled; good and sound. With the ownership signature at the top of the title page of "Wat: Edwd. Wynne July 21st, 1784." One would want that Wynne (1734-1784) is the English lawyer and scholar who owned property in Somerset, a manor in Cornwall, as well as property in Dudley in Wales. According to Wikipedia he had a library of nearly two thousand volumes, this possibly among them. His library was sold after his death in a sale that lasted 11 days. But the "Wat: Edwd. Wynne" is problematic. There was also a Watkin Edward Wynne (1801-1880) a conservative Welsh politician, but the dates are achronistic. On B2 in the gutter are the initials W.E.W.
