Book Description

2 volumes, 8vo (177 x 106 mm, hence a large paper copy),, xx, 203; iv, 208 p., contemporary calf, the gilt on spine faded, but a very nice, completely unsophisticated copy, hinges and spine-ends perfect.
Dealer Notes
Rothschild 1971. First edition, corresponding to Rothschild's description, reading `vous' at I, 150, and `who have' at II, 133. With half-titles and List of Subscribers, but without the Advertisement leaf, which Rothschild’s entry seems to imply belongs to the small paper issue. Copy for copy this is not a rare book, but most copies that come on the market are in later bindings, and a large paper copy of this purity is rarely seen.
