Beschreibung

Small4to, [iv], viii, 472, xx - Index and Corrigenda p. Original dark brown blind-stamped cloth, gilt, all edges red, Montgomery arms to the upper cover in gilt. Professionally recased otherwise a very good plus copy with the half-title and a presention inscription to Thomas Bedfred Montgomery by his brother George Montgomery July 30th 1879 and referring him to a manuscript note on page 375 identifying the wife of Hugh Montgomery as Madame de la Rue a French widow with property in Killee [Kilkee]. Second edition after the much smaller first edition of 1830. Montgomery Coat of Arms within the text on page 360. The title continues: Compiled from Family Papers by William Montgomery of Rosemount, Esquire; Edited, with Notes by Rev. George Hill. Vol I. This book was also published in the same year by James Cleeland and Thomas Dargan of Belfast with exactly the same title page and pagination, however their printing omitted Vol I from the title page, replacing it with a 30 mm double rule. This present Archer printing appears to be much scarcer than the Cleeland printing with only the BL and University of Guelph copies located on WorldCat. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 20804
