Hardcover. 1st edition. Errata (2 lines) on p. [8]. 180 p. 17 cm. Bookplate on inside cover, Ex Libris. Contemporary cloth-backed boards. Binding a little loose. Light spotting, occasionally not so light. Covers a little rubbed. Antiquarian. The author specifically points out to the reader in his introduction that his narrative confines itself more especially to a consideration of natural objects, and the incidental events of travel. He sailed from New York for the Mediterranean, visiting Naples, Palermo, Syracuse, Malta, Messina, the Vulcanian Islands, before returning to Naples. He seems to studiously avoid what he terms artificial wonders. In the penultimate chaper he recounts the tale of an earlier visit to Scotland where he fell in company with another traveller obsessed with often macabre stories of people being buried alive. Some of these tales the author recounts in this chapter

Hardback. Published 1734. 1st ed. 55pp. Scarce. Describing an episode in mid-15th century Scottish history. Norman MacDougall in his work, James III a political history (p. 289-291), suggests that the aim of this pamphlet was to criticize Sir Robert Walpole and his government, and can be interpreted as a covert attack on the current prime minister. There is a comma after "force" on p. 42, line 8. 1/2 leather over cloth, slightly rubbed. Remaining in v. good condition for its age
