"The 4to. edition of 1770 is a very beautiful and extremely scarce work, the rarest of all Baskerville's editions. It is frequently chosen by the curious as a repository for any modern or antique design relating to the poet." (Dibdin) ESTC T46243; Gaskell 39; Dibdin II (4th edn.), 111.

An early school book of Jubal Early's, which based on the 1830 date, was most likely used by him during his early schooling in Virginia before enrolling at the US Military Academy in 1833. A remarkable association copy of a man who would later serve prominently in the Civil War for the Confederate Army. Jubal was well-educated and this book formed a part of his educational upbringing. I'm not aware of early examples of his signature in existence and this book would have been signed by him when he was 13 years old.
