Item description from seller

PRINTED IN SOUTHAMPTON. Aquatint frontispiece/title, three engraved and eight aquatint plates (one folding). Five woodcuts in the text. 4to. [243 x 195 x 18 mm]. [1]f, iv, [vi], 147, [1]. Bound in the original boards, paper spine with a red goatskin label. (New endleaves, upper joint split). This is a large paper copy, with the edges untrimmed. There is some occasional light spotting and offsetting from the plates, but it is a very good copy. The first edition of 1801 had only six plates. In this edition all but two of the plates are by Englefield. Sir Henry Charles Englefield (c.1752-1822) was a fellow of most of the learned societies in London and a member of the Society of Dilettanti from 1781. He made numerous contributions to Archaeologia and his chief topographcial work, Picturesque Beauties of the Isle of Wight was published in 1816.
