About This Item
London: Field & Tuer, Ye Leadenhalle Presse…New York: Scribner & Welford… [n.d.] The text was edited by Evelyn Forsyth from a manuscript produced by Griffith Boan in Carlisle, Cumbria, in 1512. The material is an old tale, which Boan states he got from a "very aged chronicle," found by him at the Chapel of Ludlow Castle in Shropshire. We could find no other immediately recognizable versions of this tale. Printed parchment over wrappers, lightly soiled. . Small quarto. Two inch split along front joint. Very good. This is a scarce book: OCLC lists eight copies, five in America.
