Description

London: Thomas Newcomb (Oakland: Octavo), 1687; 1999. 1st edition. Other Binding. New/No Jacket (as issued). New copy (in shrinkwrap). Digital facsimile (in electronic PDF format on CD-ROM disc; not a printed book) of the 1687 edition of this splendidly engraved festival book commemorating the coronation of King James II of England, from the collection of Bridwell Library. One of the most splendid illustrated books of the seventeenth century. Here in stunning double-page plates are rendered every detail of the procession, coronation, and banqueting--including the "1445 dishes of delicious viands" consumed that day. The pomp of royal pageantry has seldom been so richly evoked. This Octavo Edition contains detailed digital images (may be magnified at up to 300% of original size) as well as a new introduction by Steven N. Zwicker and detailed bibliographical information.
