First edition, 12mo, pp. x, 132; engraved frontispiece and 7 engraved plates; original drab paper-covered boards, printed paper label on spine; upper joint starting, else very good, clean and sound. Early ownership signature of 'S. Manson / Ripon.' Bloomfield (1766-1823) became famous for his poem The Farmer's Boy which went through many editions, in England, on the continent, and in America. His poetry "invites comparison with that of George Crabbe, who was also a native of Suffolk. Both wrote much in couplets of iambic pentameters, and both provide descriptions of rural life at its hardest and least inviting" (Wikipedia).
