1683032122London: Printed by T. N. for Thomas Basset Samuel Lowndes Christopher Wilkinson William Cademan and Jacob Tonson 1683 A fair copy of the first English translation of this classic work by the then Historiographer of France Francois Eudes de Mezeray 1610-1683. Classed as 'fair' because it lacks the frontispiece and the contemporary full leather binding is worn with some splitting at the joint between the spine and the front board. The contents are generally very clean and sound. The binding has raised bands to spine and the remains of lining to the boards. The endpapers appear contemporary. Contents: title page small repaired tear to bottom edge; some older reinforcement to the gutter; very small worm track to top; dedication to James of York 2pp; To the Reader 2pp; text to book I ;; 1-353 some light marking to pp 51 97/8; small tear to bottom margin p 325 with a little loss; blank; title page Book II; text pp 357-654 small worm track in gutter of bottom margin to p 425; loss of corner tip p356; title page Book III; text pp 657-968 mispagination pp 662 to 665 and 804 to 705 to 806 but no text loss; brown mark p683; small hole p743; Tables 60pp; Finis.

1627032988London: Adam Islip 1627 A fair copy of the extremely scarce '2nd impression' of Edward Grimeston's Generall Historie of the Netherlands. Grimeston was known as prolific translator and the first edition of the Historie was largely taken from J F Le Petit's 'La Grand Chronique Ancienne et Moderne de Hollande'. It was a fairly faithful translation but he researched the subject adding text on the years 1601-1608 using sources such as Emanuel Demetrius. It was very popular but he was criticised for not including more on the efforts and achievements of the English troops in Flanders. In his address at the beginning of the 2nd 1627 edition he states that he did in 1608 'observe my Authors.They were men borne in those countries who would arrogate as much as might be to their own Nation'. In the new edition he 'had conference with some of the great Commanders and Captaines' from the English side and endeavoured to redress the balance. He wanted to also bring the edition up to date but apparently his printers did not allow it so this work was done by William Crosse. The second edition has fewer engravings 29 and the pagination has numerous errors presumably testament to all the revisions and additions. This copy is contemporary full leather which was rebacked at some point to preserve some of the spine. The repair was not particularly high quality and there is some old tape at the internal spine joints. The boards themselves are generally clean with some scuffing. There is a lot of repair to corners now flaking and the bottom corner of the back board is soft. The spine remnants are quite dry and flaky. Internally there is an old note at the front endpaper repeated on the initial blank which also has an elaborate signature of William Forde of Manchester 1800. The note states that the book is rare and that he has found an entry in White's Catalogue for it in 1801 at a cost of 18/-. Contents with engraved title - with signatures to top; dedication 2pp; Translator's preface 2pp; text pp 1-1262 with continuation by Crosse pp 1276-1588 with 29 three quarter page engravings Finis; Index 13pp Finis. The pagination is all over the place eg pp 1262 - blank - 1276 where the Continuation starts. Please enquire if you would like to see the full list. All the ties work bar one - 1266-1249 - but this is because the tie is wrong - the text is fine. The contents are generally clean with occasional marking and the odd edge tear and are complete. Elaborate head and tailpieces and initial capitals. The paper is lightly toned and quite light in weight. The initial leaves through to p 1 are very fragile with some loss at the edges. There is light persistent staining at the top margin which is not particularly noticeable until the end of the work where the stain is at the top corner which becomes quite fragile. There is sporadic slight worming in the bottom corner - and occasional exploits elsewhere - but away from the text. There is the occasional burn hole edge tear corner margin loss - please enquire if you would like to see the full list. Adam Islip hardcover
