Description:
Wilmington, DE: Peter Brynberg, 1797. New Edition. Hardcover. Paper darkened. One page torn with no loss; rear blank and endpaper partially present. Very Good. Duodecimo (4" x 6-3/4") bound with the half-title page in original sheep leather with a gilt-lettered red morocco label; 226 [6] pages. Evans 32249.

Bindings with edgewear, spines deteriorated; boards detached on the third volume, the front board nearly detached on the first. Bindings quite worn but contents Very Good. Four folio (10" x 16") volumes bound in calf-backed marbled boards of one of the most spectacular illustrated works of the 18th-century.
