About This Item
Edinburgh: Archibald Constable & Co Ltd, 1822. Fourth edition. Octavo, pp xx, 646, faintly marbled edges, rather strong age-toning on many pages, some foxing, but otherwise very tight and sound internally, marbled endpapers, contemporary half calf and marbled board, srubbed and slightly worn, spine with raised bands, upper joint beginning to wear. With the bookbinder's ticket of John Cain, the outspoken Manx preacher, on the front endpaper. [Not in Blanche Henrey, though the first three editions are; it would appear to be unchanged from the third edition of 1814.]. Half-Leather. Good.
