First edition. 2 vols., 8vo., pp. xxiii, [i], 598; [ii], 627, [i] + errata slip at rear of each volume. A few illustrations in the text. A few patches of faint toning but generally good. Both volumes rebacked with raised bands: vol. I with a plain spine, green gilt title and vol. labels; vol. II with previous spine retained, gilt with brown title and vol. labels. Contemporary calf boards, plain gilt borders. Edges sprinkled red, drab endpapers. Rubbed, some scrapes, vol II hinges repaired and volume label chipped with some loss. Good, sound copies overall. Traces of a bookplate removed from front pastedown. Noted as being most useful for its 'abstracts of the works under consideration and illustrations drawn from modern European literatures' (Tedder, ODNB).
