Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. THE LAST BLACK-LETTER EDITION OF CHAUCER, and the eighth edition of his works overall. This edition, edited by Thomas Speght, includes the recently discovered conclusions of the Cook's and the Squire's Tales on the final page, but is otherwise a reprint of the 1602 edition. Folio, collated and complete with frontispiece of "Progenie of Geffrey Chaucer", title page, pp32, pp660 + pp24. Hardcover issued without dust jacket. Bound in slightly later full dark brown calf leather with 5 raised bands and red leather title label to spine in good condition with some bumping to tips and rubbing to edges. Inside a little toning and the occasional spot of foxing to be expected of a book this age but otherwise in excellent clean and bright condition. A very nice copy.
