Pero hubo quienes, ausentes las 23 páginas de la introducción, creyeron que lo prohibido eran las 23 primeras páginas y, ni cortos ni perezosos, sobre ejemplares ya esquilmados en la propia imprenta de la introducción, arrancaron sin ambages las primeras 23 páginas del primer capítulo. Les parecería que tenía sentido expurgar la concepción antropológica de Hervás a la que va dedicada el capítulo.

Rigurosamente completa y diríase que intacta salvo las faltas señaladas debidas a los rigores del pobre papel que se empleó en imprimirla y de los cambios de domi.

Hardcover. 1st Edition. 3 volumes. Folio (16 4/8 x 10 inches). One folding letterpress table (some sections of text a bit browned and spotted, a few pages with repaired marginal tears). Engraved frontispiece portrait (margins strengthened on verso at an early date) 53 double-page or folding engraved maps and 4 full-page maps by John Cary, 9 double-page or folding and 88 full-page plates of artifacts, views and military plans, engraved and woodcut vignettes in the text ("An Accurate Map of England and Wales" laid down, "Middlesex" and the "East Riding of Yorkshire" strengthened on verso along the bottom edge, "Shropshire" with early closed tear affecting the image). Modern half brown cloth, marbled paper boards gilt (rebacked). Provenance: early marginal corrections in volumes one and III; pencilled drawings dated 1814 on page 499 and 511 of volume III; with the modern book plate of Warrington Museum on the front paste-down of each volume. First edition of Gough's translation with large-scale maps by John Cary. First published in Latin in 1586, the first edition in English in 1610. "If Camden was not the first English historian (in the modern sense of the word), topographer and antiquarian, he was certainly the first to relate the three studies, and his "Britannia", primarily topographical, is the first book which shows. the need to evaluate sources" ("Printing and the Mind of Man" 10). Camden's was the first survey of Great Britain county by county and the first study of Roman Britain as perceived in the landscape of 16th-century Britain. For this new edition Gough completely translated Camden's entire text, " a task that took him seven years. The actual printing took a further nine. He was criticized by some for the method which he employed in retaining the original text entire and relegating all his own and Gibson's additions to cumbersome footnotes at the bottom, and also for the accuracy of some of his translations and additions. He professed himself disappointed by the level of public interest. It was on the whole, however, agreed to be a work of immense value and the product of enormous labour. He had planned the enterprise since 1773 and collected new material assiduously from that date. As well as visiting every county himself, he called upon a network of antiquarian friends and correspondents to seek out information, check proofs, and offer suggestions" (R.H. Sweet for DNB). Gough's work is illustrated throughout for the first time with large-scale maps by the celebrated cartographer John Cary: "Cary's first known engraved plan is dated 1779. Henceforth, the quality of his engraving established new standards and a new style, with his effective, starkly beautiful, plain design being widely adopted. His firm's cartographic output was prolific and diverse, ranging through maps, plans, atlases, astronomical and educational works, road-books (including works based on surveys by Aaron Arrowsmith the elder, who probably trained him), guides, and globes. Particularly noteworthy are the immensely popular New and Correct English Atlas (editions from 1787), which became the standard county atlas of the period, and the Traveller's Companion (from 1790), the printing plates of both of which had to be replaced having become worn in the effort to meet the huge demand, and the particularly fine New English Atlas (from 1801) and New Universal Atlas (from 1808)" (David Smith for DNB).
