| Summary: | Niall Kenny description: ESTC and ECCO (digital version of BL copy) imply that some copies have an extra leaf with errata on it. However having examined the BL copy it clearly has no relevance to the book, so is an adventitious leaf from another book. It doesn't even relate to the next book bound in, Moorcroft's "Cursory account...". Thus the book does not have an errata leaf. BL copy also has half-title bound after the main title page. Introduction signed: "Equestrian Receptacle and Operative Farriery, Edgeware Road, London, December 1, 1795." Pagination error: p 218 as '118'. |
