Now housed in archival mylar sleeve. 2 2 pp. Commonwealth seal to t.p. Folio: 2. 10-5/8" x 6-3/4" <br/><br/>Gabler though not listing this item does briefly discuss & list divers tracts & pamphlets written in the early 1640s voicing public outrage over a contract between Charles I and the Vintner's Company of London- under said contract the Vintners agreed to pay a 46 shilling tax on every ton of Spanish & French wine & also agreed to annually buy a certain amount from English importers. In return the vintners were permitted to sell cooked victuals a proviso not in their original charter & allowed to recoup the tax by charging a penny a quart more that the officially published price. The ultimate effect was to give the Vintners' Company a monopoly on the wine trade all the while enriching the coffers of Charles I. Needless to say wine drinkers were livid. Parliament eventually responded in the consumers' favor. Gabler pp. 2-3.

1785377London: Printed by assignment from the executors of E. Wicksteed for W. Bent 1785. Hardcover. Very good. 12mo pp. 6 ix 1 156; the first leaf consisting of an approbation on the recto and an engraved frontispiece on the verso; contemporary and probably original black goatskin with decorative gilt border and similar border outlining central panels on the covers smooth gilt spine with winged cherub heads a.e.g. green ribbon page maker; minor refurbishment at head and tail of spine. ¶ An attractive English binding possibly made in Brighton on account of the early provenance of two women owners see below. This edition is not listed ESTC or OCLC and is distinguished by the engraved frontispiece on the verso the printed appeal by W. Bent dated 1785 warning the public of "surreptitious" counterfeit editions of the present work. Indeed two similar but not identical editions are listed by ESTC; these are recorded in just one or two libraries each. Both editions are reproduced in "Eighteenth Century Collections Online" and ours represents an entirely different setting of type. THE BINDING: The most extraordinary tools on the present binding are surely the "bat-wing" cherubs that adorn the entire length of the spine quite distinctive and yet apparently remain unrecorded. It is very possible that the workshop was provincial perhaps Brighton which accounts for a paltry amount of literature published on the subject. PROVENANCE: Early inscriptions of two women collectors appear on the verso of the first flyleaf: "Sarah Lumsdale 9 Bloomsbury Place Brighton" NB: this house still exists -- "Mary Cobb April 11 1800." This edition is not to be confused with ESTC T80498 or T80499. Printed by assignment from the executors of E. Wicksteed for W. Bent hardcover books

Reliures demi-basane vert foncé, dos à 4 nerfs plats ornés de filets dorés, de roulette dorée en tête et en pied, auteur, titre et tomaison dorés. LII + 1 carte dépliante + 490 - 506 ; 507 - 534 ; 471 - 486 pp. éraflures mineures et éparses sur les dos et les coiffes, sinon bel ensemble d’un ouvrage rare. Volume I : 1497 à 1771 - Volume II : 1771 à 1803 - Volume IV : 1803 à 1834. L’oeuvre majeure de Barchou de Penhoën 1801-1855 mérite d’être redécouverte pour son intérêt pour l’empire colonial édifié en Inde par les Britanniques, entreprise qui n’a guère suscité l’intérêt des érudits et historiens français.
