The Historical Remembrancer: or, An Epitome of Universal History: including…

Edinburgh: Thomson, 1814. Full calf, 5 3/4 inches tall. A splendid and rare little volume with the binder's ticket of J. Carfrae of Edinburgh. A superb little Regency binding with gilt raised bands, fine gilt tooling to the panels, red label and a series of gilt fillets and a blind roll framing the boards. The chart is present and correct though a little creased and frayed. David Steuart was Lord Provost of Edinburgh and a spirit dealer, whose great literary work quickly passed into oblivion.
