London: Printed for the Author, By Taylor, 1819. Second Edition, Much Improved and Enlarged. Quarter Leather. Very Good binding. 8vo., in quarter red roan over marbled board with the spine ruled in gilt; [7], 8-122 pages; a previous owner name (W. B. Buckle | The Oaks | Catton | Norfolk) on the pastedown; with the frontispiece being an engraved portrait of "The Prince Regent" and not of King George III as in later printings; there is scattered foxing.~~Interestingly we find no printings prior to 1820 for sale, nor do we find them in OCLC; we are unable to find auction records for any printings prior to 1820. This edition,, printed while King George III was still alive , is uncommon to say the least. Very Good binding.
