A propos de cet article

First edition. Small octavo. pp., 54. Complete text block. An exceptionally rare, deeply personal late-Georgian travel narrative and religious meditation focusing on the earliest days of Kentish sea-bathing resort culture.Crucially, the title page features the prominent, crisp handwritten contemporary owner's signature of "Mary Ann Robson 1788", matching the exact year of the book's publication. (Note: Strictly unrelated to the later 19th-century figure of the same birth name).Presented in a slightly later, bespoke full red leather fine binding. The spine features a neat black leather title label finished with gilt titles. Both boards uniquely embellished with central black leather diamond overlays, each stamped with a gilt emblem of a ship at sea—an homage to the text's narrative detailing the author's sea voyage from London to Kent aboard the ship "Friends".

The custom full-leather binding remains in very good condition.Internally, the 18th-century paper is in very good condition, showing just a little natural light age-toning and the odd minor mark as expected. A beautiful, collector-grade example of a highly elusive, historically significant work of regional topography and medical transit.…
