Beschreibung

16mo, First edition in English, unauthorized, preceding the authorized English translation by two months, the imprimatur leaf being dated Sept 30 instead of December 19. [xiv]*, 323pp +[blank]. The text is a portion of Part III of Bacon's great work, the Instauratio Magna, a translation of Historia vitae et mortis. This is the last part of the Instauratio Magna published in English in Bacon's lifetime. With the engraved bookplate of Algernon Cappell, 2d Earl of Essex, dated 1701. Cappell held the office of Gentleman of the Bedchamber to King William III between 1691 and 1702. He was Colonel of the 4th Dragoons between 1693 and 1710 and in 1708 was made a Privy Counselor by Queen Anne. ##### Condition: Good/Poor.

Covers: Contemporary mottled calf, but lacking the front board and rear board nearly detached, substantial wear to spine. Small corner tear to fep. Bestandsnummer des Verk�ufers k200418i

Anbieterinformationen

Books, Historical Documents, Autographs, and Ephemera -- Burns Bizarre specializes in the eclectic. We are a merger of two former booksellers 'Books on Main' [Ventura CA] and Armadillo & Dicker [Sacramento CA.] Most of our stock is rare or out-of-print - dating from the 18th century to the present. We do not sell reprint editions or book club editions unless they differ from the original in some way that makes them independently collectible. The name Burns' Bizarre comes from one of our father's enterprises in Chicago during the 1930's -- we are proud to continue his tradition of what is now eighty years of selling things people could easily live without.

Versandinformationen:

Shipping costs are based on an average weight, including packaging, of 2 LB, or 0.9 KG. We usually don't charge extra if you are above that, but If your book is very heavy or special handling is required we may add an extra shipping charge. This usually occurs only for books being shipped via priority mail or internationally; the extra cost for shipping can make the difference in whether we make a profit or take a loss on the sale. We will always contact you first to get your approval for the extra charge. Sometimes shipping doesn't cost as much as we estimate -- if it's a negligible amount we just let it be but if it is substantial, we usually refund the excess shipping. We do not insure our shipments*; if you would like your package insured let us know and we will quote you the extra cost for doing so. (*Domestic items being sent by priority mail are automatically insured by the post office for up to $50.)
