Book Description

Small 8vp. Three vols. Vol 1: xii [-i-ii], [xiii-xvi], 165; Vol 2: [ii], 167; Vol 3: [ii], 134. Half-titles not present. Signature of Edward Jones to each front endpaper; one noted 8 Dec 1829, and another Jesus College, Oxon . Contemporary full calf, two title labels present, edges speckled, gilt number 974 to each spine, occasional foxing or signs of use, but overall nice examples, extremely unusual to find in their original binding because usually, these famous and well-written letters are read so much that the boards are detached. Amongst the subjects covered are women in the Ottoman Empire, vaccination, and so on. Published in the same year and format as the first edition. ESTC T79460.
