Item description from seller

London: printed for John Stagg, in Westminster-Hall; and Daniel Browne, at the Black-Swan, without Temple-Bar. 1740, 1st edition, 8vo, xv, [i], 344 (8) index, 356-390 (appendix), [2], pages, with the appendix, some waterstaining to the first 50 pages, wormhole through the first 40 pages, 19th century half leather binding with the crest of the Constitutional Club Library in gilt on the spine, bookplate of Constitutional Club on flyleaf, "the gift of the right honble Lord Colchester 1887", hinges damaged and loose, repair on the inside, gilt lettering on spine, spine damaged, Reginald Charles Edward Abbot (13 February 1842 - 26 February 1919), 3rd Baron Colchester of Colchester from 1867, was a barrister and Conservative Party politician. The only son of Charles Abbot, 2nd Baron Colchester of Colchester and the Hon. Elizabeth Susan Law, he was educated at Eton College before being admitted to Christ Church, Oxford. He was President of the Union Society of Oxford in 1863 and graduated with an M.A. in 1864. In the latter year he became a Fellow of All Soul's College. He was Examiner in Law and History at Oxford University from 1869 to 1871. He was called to the bar at Lincoln's Inn in 1867. He unsuccessfully contested parliamentary seats on two occasions: at East Sussex in 1865 and at Devonport in 1867. Excellent provenance for this rare book. Written by John Campbell (1708-1775). An entertaining romantic history based around the life and diplomatic career of Jan Willem, Duke de Ripperda, with many amusing anecdotes drawn from the Moroccan and Spanish courts and a wealth of information and comment on both countries and the character of the two nations. Interesting comparisons are also drawn between the Spanish and English courts, in the final section. The detailed index at the end makes it a good tool for reference as well as a diverting read. This book combines the first 344 pages, the index and the appendix which brings the total of 390 numbered pages. Scarce and complete.
