Original or very early binding in full brown leather with no title and incised border lines to front and back covers. Title page A3 contents 81pp 15.5 x 10cm. The title page states: 'With a large map of the said Level as Drained Surveyed & Described by Sir Jonas Moore.' : note that this copy lacks this map. Otherwise a Good copy of a rare and very early book on the surveying and draining of the Fens that appears to have belonged at a later date to Lord Milton of Peterborough as a plain bookplate Milton Peterborough is pasted inside the front cover this partly obscures the Bookseller's text to the Reader which is printed on the front pastedown. The probable original owner's name is inscribed on the back of the title page: Geo. Underwood 1699; he has also inscribed his name in the margins of three pages in 1699 and 1704 with a correction to the text possibly made by him on one of those pages. A later hand has added a note in pencil on title margin that the author was Samuel Fortrey surveyor of the Middle Level. Other than this the text is generally clean with the odd spot or brown mark; the binding is sound though stretched and the covers rubbed to edges and spine. Pictures available.

186247726Berlin: Printed by Julius Sittenfeld 1862. Hardcover. g to vg. Elephant Folio. Original spotted leather with debossed vignette and decorative ruling on cover. Blue endpapers. Title page printed in red and black with engraved vignette. With commentaries by Vidal Yom Tov of Tolosa Abraham ben David of Posquières Joseph ben Ephraim Karo Shem Tov ben Abraham Ibn Gaon Meir ha-Kohen Abraham Hiyya de Boton Judah ben Samuel Rosanes Nehemiah Trebitsch and Nahman Avraham Goldberg.<br /> <br /> The Mishneh Torah is the only Medieval-era work that details all of Jewish observance including those laws that are only applicable when the Holy Temple is in existence. Its title is an appellation originally used for the Biblical book of Deuteronomy and its subtitle "Book of the Strong Hand" derives from its subdivision into fourteen books: the numerical value fourteen when represented as the Hebrew letters Yod 10 Dalet 4 forms the word yad "hand". Maimonides intended to provide a complete statement of the Oral Law so that a person who mastered first the Written Torah and then the Mishneh Torah would not need to refer to any other legal text. Contemporary reaction was mixed with strong and immediate opposition focusing on the absence of sources and the belief that the work appeared to be intended to supersede study of the Talmud. Maimonides responded to these criticisms and the Mishneh Torah endures as an influential work in Jewish religious thought. According to several authorities a decision may not be rendered in opposition to a view of Maimonides even when he differed from the understanding of the Talmudic passage for in such cases the presumption was that the words of the Talmud were incorrectly interpreted. Likewise: "One must follow Maimonides even when the latter opposed his teachers since he surely knew their views and if he decided against them he must have disapproved their interpretation. However despite his stature in Yemen and the Sephardic world the Rabbinic authorities from the 13th century onwards did not base their legal rulings and interpretations of Halicha on Maimonides. The Mishneh Torah was compiled between 1170 and 1180 4930-4940 while Maimonides was living in Egypt and is regarded as Maimonides' magnum opus.<br /> <br /> Text in Hebrew. Bindings with mostly light wear along edges with small chips some scuffing of covers and lightly rubbed. Volume three with two inch crack at lower front joint and chip at head of spine.
