Full-Leather. Etat : Good. No Jacket. 5th or later Edition. 1740 10th edition. 60pp plus very lengthy index to rear. Good/None. Brown leather boards with blind stamped decoration, some rubbing/chipping to edges/spine, some scuffing, split to side of hinge. Very old label to spine. Contents generally clean and tight but for minor soiling/browning, ink notation inside back cover. Beautiful early volume of the works of Horace, the leading Roman lyric poet during the reign of Augustus, particularly known for his Satires and Epistles. This volume includes notes by Louis Desprez and a life of Horace by Andre Dacier. Latin text.

Full-Leather. Etat : Good. Reprint. Later edition from 1771 in five volumes but missing volume V: I (311pp including essay), II (300pp), III (340pp) and IV (335pp). Contemporary full leather binding. The title and volume number panels have been lost on all the volumes. The volume numbers are stamped on the spines. The spines have chipping at the tops and bottoms with some vertical cracking to the surfaces. There is also little cracking to the edges - the binding is firm with the exception of volume I where there is a gap along the top half. The corners are bumped with some rubbing and fraying and there is some light surface wear to the front and rear panels. Name of a previous owner in ink to the title pages - Lady Wale of Shelford near Cambridge - and there is the name of an earlier owner above this. Browning and some spotting to the endpapers. Volume I has a little more wear to the spine than the other volumes and there is a little edge creasing and tearing to the fold-out illustration of Troy. Volume II has two pages which protrude slightly with some edge wear. Volume III has quite heavy staining over half the surface of the front panel and a large stain which affects the top half of the pages through to page 30 and then diminishes gradually through to page 150 with these pages only a little affected. There is also a little creasing to the top corners of pages 77 to 86. Volume IV has an eight page section of the text which protrudes a little with some edge creasing. There is light browning to the pages with some spots and marks in places and in particular to the pages at the front of the books but the pages are otherwise generally unmarked. Heavy item due to it being four volumes so there will be an additional postage charge for overseas orders.

Hardcover. Etat : Poor. Octavo, 432 pages, maps. There should be 17 maps but only 15 present. The maps present are: Europe, Scandinavia, Moscovy or Russia, France, Germany, Poland, Spain & Portugal, Italy, Turkey in Europe, Scotland, Ireland, Asia, Africa, North America (showing California as an island), and South America. I believe the ones that are missing are England (one can see where it has been removed between pp202/203) and the global map which should be near the beginning. The rest of the text block is complete although there is some odd numbering - page 169 follows page 160 although the text continues without a gap and again the numbering goes from 184 to 177 but the text follows on correctly. This means that page numbers 177 to 184 are used twice although with different text. It appears that the copy in Princeton Library has the same odd pagination so perhaps it is the same in all copies of this edition. The text block is in good condition apart from the loss of the two maps but the covers (what's left of them) are poor. There's no rear board and the leather from the front board is missing. Only one joint is still attaching the front board. Further photographs can be sent on request.

He is most famous for his novel Robinson Crusoe, published in 1719, which is claimed to be second only to the Bible in its number of translations. He has been seen as one of the earliest proponents of the English novel, and helped to popularise the form in Britain with others such as Aphra Behn and Samuel Richardson. Defoe wrote many political tracts, was often in trouble with the authorities, and spent a period in prison. Intellectuals and political leaders paid attention to his fresh ideas and sometimes consulted him. Defoe was a prolific and versatile writer, producing more than three hundred works[4]?books, pamphlets, and journals?on diverse topics, including politics, crime, religion, marriage, psychology, and the supernatural.

Murray; W. Goldsmith; R. Baldwin; R. Faulder; J. Bew; Scatcherd and Whitaker; W. Lowndes, and G. and T. Wilkie, London octavo (8vo 6 × 9 152 × 229),Pages 275 ISBN: The Farther Adventures of Robinson Crusoe (now more commonly rendered as The Further Adventures of Robinson Crusoe) is a novel by Daniel Defoe, first published in 1719. Just as in its significantly more popular predecessor, Robinson Crusoe (1719), the first edition credits the work's fictional protagonist Robinson Crusoe as its author. It was published under the considerably longer original title: The Farther Adventures of Robinson Crusoe; Being the Second and Last Part of His Life, And of the Strange Surprising Accounts of his Travels Round three Parts of the Globe. Although intended to be the last Crusoe tale, the novel is followed by a non-fiction book involving Crusoe by Defoe entitled Serious Reflections During the Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe: With his Vision of the Angelick World (1720). The story is speculated to be partially based on Moscow embassy secretary Adam Brand's journal detailing the embassy's journey from Moscow to Peking from 1693 to 1695.
