Hardcover. Condition: New - Very Good. The weekly issues of Notes and Queries were the Victorian equivalent of today's online forums, a vital research tool for 'literary men, artists, antiquaries, genealogists, etc.' This selection from the magazine's First Series (1849-55) covers such varied topics as bookselling, curious wills… and epitaphs, the voracity of the hedgehog - and the English habit of 'profane swearing'. Slightly off-mint. Wiegle, Matt (illustrator).
