About this Item

Issued in the Edward Arber 'Arber's English Reprints' series, a late re-issue as this series was initially published1868-1888, mainly by Southgate and Arber died in 1912. 160 pp., facs. original t.p. on p.13, preceded by Arber's introduction and bibliography of the work's editions, small decorative endpiece at end of text. Small indentation of erased pencil pricing on front endpaper, otherwise internally clean, tight & unmarked, brown flecking to fore-edge. Grey printed board covers surprisingly clean given their character with no obvious wear bar sl.top spine rubbing. In his bibliography Arber acknowledges the 1863 John E.B.Mayor edition as the best hitherto published, his own Introduction is lengthier than Mayor's. Main drawback is the very small print-size of the prelims and intro.
