Second edition. 12mo. Dark green cloth, decoration stamped in blind, with gilt lettering and vignette. A very good copy indeed, previous owner's name on the front pastedown. Twelve etched illustrations by Cruickshank. Charles Dibdin (1745-1833) wrote hundreds of poems and songs, many of which were used in his comic operas and boisterous entertainments. "The sea-songs, numbering close on a hundred, are the best though by no means the only good ones. 'Tom Bowling' and 'Poor Jack' and 'Twas in the good ship Rover' are well enough known." [Survey of English Literature, 1780-1830]. N° de réf. du vendeur 35520
