Pall-Mall, York Street, Strand and Fenchurch Stree: J. Dodsley; S. Baker, G.Leigh et al, 1768. Small octavo, pp (2), 123, a little age-toned but otherwise extremely clean and sound internally, bound in a recent qurter calf and marbled boards with red leather lettering piece on the spine. Armorial bookplate of The Earl of Harrowby. The upper board is a little bowed, but this detracts only a little from a very bright copy indeed. RARE. [Blanche Henrey 1437. De Combles wrote the original anonymously in 1745, when it was the first work on the subject in France. The English edition is also anonymous and Henrey speculates that of the various booksellers mentioned on the title page, "J. Gordon, seedsman, Fenchurch Street" may well have suggested publication if indeed he wasn't the translator.]. First English edition. Quarter calf and boards. Very Good.
