About this Item
Modern quarter calf (by Alan Farrant, 1998), marbled boards. Fourth edition (first edition 1820), in which the publishers have sought "to improve [the book's] typographical appearance". "The author has also the pleasure of giving, in the title-page, a wood-cut vignette of PLAYFORD CHURCH, from a drawing taken on the spot by the late JAMES KNIGHT, jun. - He trusts that its connexion with one of the pieces contained in the volume will render it, in the view of his readers, an appropriate embellishment: to himself it has the double charm of being a pleasing delineation of a favourite spot, and a grateful memorial of a departed friend.".
