About This Item
Mexico: Airzpe. Good with no dust jacket. 1808. Leather. [vii], 250 pp. Entirely in Spanish. A small octavo. Bound in what appears to be the original leather, front board detached, spine perished. First blank has an old flourished inscript dated 1824. Text is clean and unmarked, paper nice, printing is somewhat uneven as to be expected from an 1808 Mexican edition. Goldsmith was pro-Napoleon for many years, then took against him, publishing an English language edition, shortly followed by a Spanish. The Mexican edition is quite scarce. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 250 pages .
