Second Edition. Illustrated throughout with coats-of-arms. The frontis is an engraving of a portrait of James I. Between the frontispiece and the actual title page is a lovely color (chromolithography?) title page from the 1838 edition published by Scott Webster and Geary. It is the only color plate. There is occasional marginalia, some quite interesting. The leather is worn at the extremities with the upper front hinge split about 2". A scarce title.
