Condition: Fair. 2nd Edition. The second edition of this interesting history of Rochester. Notable for its provenance: an inscription from 'Brabourne', presumably Edward Hugessen Knatchbull-Hugessen, 1st Baron Brabourne, of Brabourne in the County of Kent. He had previously represented Sandwich in Parliament and served as Under-Secretary of State for Home Affairs and Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies. He was also notable for having written a number of (now sadly forgotten) stories of fantasy that were popular with a young J.R.R. Tolkein. His son, the second Baron, won the parliamentary seat of Rochester in Parliament as a Liberal the year after the book was purchased, in 1889, and ultimately assumed the title in 1893 after his father's death. The inscription, under the bookplate of Francis Barron, reads: ""Bought at Barron's sale at Sothebys in early November 1888 in one lot with 'Boys' Survey of Kent', 'Wordsworth's Athens & Attica', 'Laborde's Sinai & Petra', & another book, all well-bound. For 9 shillings. ~ Brabourne"" The book itself is only in fair condition, although complete with the folding map of Rochester (foxed) and four engravings. The contemporary leather binding is heavily bumped and rubbed, with cracking on the spine and weak guttering. The page block is firm. The Title Page is heavily foxed but the pages are largely in good condition, save one tear on page 103/104 which doesn't interact with the text.…
