viii, 87 pages.
Very small loss of cloth to fore-edge of upper board and lower corners. Top lower board corner bumped. End-papers slightly browned. Neat ink inscription of a previous owner to the half-title, and book-seller's pencil notations to the front free end-paper. Numerous neat pencil notations to the margins of the section on Turkish books – possibly accession numbers?
Elias John Wilkinson Gibb (1857 - 1901) was a Scottish orientalist. With a knowledge of Arabic and Persian languages he became especially interested in Turkish language and literature. He was seen as a sympathetic and talented orientalist who, despite never visiting the regions that he studied, acquired a renowned library which, upon his death, passed to Cambridge University, the British Museum, and the British embassy at Constantinople.
A scarce copy of this handlist which is divided into five sections; Turkish books, Persian and Arabic texts, catalogues of oriental manuscripts, philology, and miscellaneous. There is also a preface by E. G. Browne, an appendix of Persian, Arabic and Urdu books from the Cowell collection, and an index of names of authors, editors and others mentioned in the list of Turkish books.
