Taplin's multum in parvo, or, Sportsmans equestrian monitor.
Niall Kenny description: Extremely scarce, 2nd edition even more so. There is no letterpress title page, so the Dingley collation incorrectly includes the engraved title page as text pages. The frontispiece, plate and engraved title are on wove paper, with the text being on laid paper.
