About This Item
Glasgow: Printed by R. Urie and Company, For A. Stalker, 1745. xii, [2], 286pp. Recent gilt-ruled calf-backed marbled paper boards, contrasting green morocco lettering-piece. Very minor shelf-wear. Internally clean and crisp. An uncommon Glasgow edition of politician and essayist Joseph Addison's (1672-1719) fragmentary apologetics (first printed in 1730), published by Urie and Stalker after the third London edition of the previous year. It must have been fairly successful as two 'fifth' editions by rival Edinburgh publishers appeared in 1746, before the true London fourth edition of 1753. ESTC T74586.. Fourth edition. 12mo.
