W. TURNER (with the exception of Richmond Castle), richly bound in red MOROCCO extra, the sides tooled in the Harleian style, uncut, top edge gilt, by Rivière: A SPLENDID BOOK, £100.

1823

One of the most esteemed works in the whole range of English Topography. Large Paper copies are in much demand, and are rising in price. The above copy has a special interest and value, on account of the rare set of Etchings.

All the above mentioned copies have the scarce aditional leaves, viz. in Vol. II are some extra leaves of text: six with the signatures *4 N-4 P, paged *325-*335, containing an account of the parish of Cockerham, in Lonsdale. The other leaf is marked *3 E, and is a title. The absence of these leaves would not be detected by any blank in the notation: Lowndes does not mention their existence. I conclude that this portion of the work was printed after the book was issued, and only a very few copies made.

"Whitaker shows us how possible it is for a powerful and cultivated mind to condescend to writing Topographical Works, and to mix in a very agreeable manner bold conjecture, deductions of general interest, applications of events in the past to the gidance of men of his own time, and spirited delineations both of manners and scenery, with those dry details which are indispensable in works of this kind.

"Dr. Whitaker's publications have had a great influence in raising the tone and character of topographical writing in England."-Gent.'s Mag., 1853, August.
