Book Description

No date. c. 1814. 8vo in 4s. Two volumes. Vol 1: [v]-vii [9]-272, Vol 2: [v]-vii, [9]-254 (2) (ad), engraved vignette title pages, frontispiece and six full-page woodcuts to each volume, plus vignette tailpieces by Bewick. Original publishers green pebble cloth boards, with paper label, indicating price at 10s. Original endpapers present, a little foxing to title pages, slightly rubbed to hinges and top of spine, but a good set overall. Rather an unusual work. Davison, often working with Catnach, produced a number of works by Bewick. This was intended to mirror his successful publication of a Bewick illustrated version of Burns. Tattersfield TB 2.502.
