Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. First edition. Octavo. xvi, 231, [1]pp., with a publisher's advertisement on the final page. Early nineteenth century half calf and marbled paper over boards, gilt spine with red leather titling label, laid paper endleaves. Armorial bookplate of Charles Joseph Harford, F.A.S. on front pastedown. A few manuscript notes in light pencil on the free endpapers and occasional marginalia in pencil, presumably in the hand of Charles Harford (1764-1830), a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries and a Justice of the Peace. A later philological work by John Cleland, best known for his erotic novel: *Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure* (popularly known as *Fanny Hill*), which got him arrested in November 1749. *Alston* V, 363-364.

First Edition. First edition, 8vo, pp. xvi, 231, [1]; 19th-century full green cloth, maroon morocco label on spine; a nice copy with occasional pencil underlinings and marginalia in pencil, presumably in the hand of W. W. Chynowerth Pope whose ownership signature is on the flyleaf; otherwise, a near fine copy. Cleland is best known as a novelist, and the author of Fanny Hill or the Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure (1750), a work "so licentious that Cleland was summoned before the privy council where he pleaded his poverty as an excuse" (DNB). He turned his attention to the study of the English language and wrote at least two books on philological subjects. "How ill Cleland was equipped for philological studies may be gathered from the spelling of a pamphlet issued by him in 1787: Specimen of an etimological vocabulary." Lowndes, however, calls it "an esteemed work." Alston V, 363 and 364; Vancil, p. 52.

4to. pp. 31. disbound (dampmarks to lower margins & some light foxing). First Edition. The author proposes extensive naval reforms, including higher wages, measures for protecting the seaman's wages from fraud and abuse and the elimination of impressment. He argues the measures will increase the maritime power of England and ensure the defeat of France and Spain in the War of the Spanish Succession. He considers measures which will strengthen the English position in America and the West Indies and bring the war to a close (pp. 21-26): "I am the more confirm'd in this Opinion, because I have very good information, that had we but a few years ago sent a competent Squadron well man'd to the West-Indies, we might have easily been Masters of Canada, the French Plantations there being in so great want, till they were supplied by a Convoy of about sixty Sail, that they could not have avoided submitting to us; and by that means we should have effectually secured our own Plantations in Northern America.".
