Contemporary full diced russia gilt ruled with fully gilt spines lettered direct several joints skilfully renewed; booksellers ticket of Calignant Paris. A handsome example of the best and most beautiful - according to Brunet - edition of Spensers works. Todds Poetical Works of John Milton 1801 became the standard edition of Milton for some decades. Here Todd assembled critical material by John Hughes Joseph Spence Thomas Wharton and John Upton and contributed his own biography of Spenser as well as additional notes. Writing in the Edinburgh Review vol 13 1806 Sir Walter Scott was less than complimentary. He described Todds style as of a dry sober and sleepy cast and was critical of his decision to reprint the notes of earlier commentators in full at the foot of each page rather than extracting their spirit and essence himself especially where they contradict one another five to one would be odds even against Culley or the Game Chicken and Spenser stood in danger of being overwhelmed but Scott did allow that the text is correctly and judiciously edited. One can sympathise with Scotts rejection of variorum editions but in the present work Todd had compiled a comprehensive survey of Spenserian scholarship as it existed two hundred years after the poets death.

Y. Calwell and an article on Hayti clipped from the Belfast News-Letter of June 1 1802 tipped to verso of front free endpaper.<br /><br />St John 1825-1910 British diplomat became British chargé d'affaires in Haiti and in 1871 took up the same post in the Dominican Republic. He was promoted to Minister in Haiti late in 1872. His assessment of the country based on twenty-five years experience which occurs on the first page of the introduction was that it was "a country in a state of rapid decadence". The book includes a description of the country and its troubled history together with chapters on the population "Vaudoux-Worship and Canniballism" cannibalism the government on the various aspects of the state and society on language and literature and on economic activity. The book caused outrage because of its sensational tales of vodoo and cannibalism and is described as "a savagely hostile account" in O.D.N.B. In his introduction to this second edition St. John replies to some of his critics.<br />The photographs circa 8.5 x 5.8 cms. are contemporary or earlier portraits of leading figures from Haitian history and are tipped in at the head of the pages on which they are first mentioned in the text. Some of the photos are probably from life and others of earlier figures are presumably from miniatures. The persons generally identified at the foot of the print were presumably at some time commercially available separately from the book. Smith Elder, & Co. hardcover
