A propos de cet article

This volume seems to have been bound as a separate entity comprising of a selection of Counties with general descriptions of the British Isles, Ireland, Scotland. Leather binding heavily worn in all respects. Rebacked. Inner hinges reinforced. Two bookplates to front pastedown: one armorial (name excised) and one modern (Roger Heaton). Title page (p39) followed by introduction (pp3,4,5); The British Monarchy (pp 6,7,8); dominions map; map of the British Isles; description of the British Isles (pp10-13); Map of Ireland and description (pp14-18); map and description of Scotland (pp19-24); Map of the south part of Great Britain and description of England (pp25-38). At this point the gaps appear in the numbering. Cornwall begins on p41 and the pages run through to p50 (Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Somerset). Then there is a large gap before Bedford begins on p81 and runs through to p108 (Bedford, Hertford, Middlesex, Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk, Cambridgeshire, Huntingdon, Northampton). Another gap occurs before the pages begin again on p123 and run through to p161 (Warwick, Worcs, Staffs, Shropshire, Cheshire, Hereford, Monmouth, South Wales, North Wales, Yorkshire, Durham, Lancs, Westmoreland, Cumberland, Northumberland). A few pages for each county. Numerous detailed head and tail-pieces: some rural or town scenes along with one showing 'The present Edystone Lighthouse 1713' (Rudyard's Lighthouse which burnt down a few years after this publication) and another showing cricket being played by children.
