| Summary: | Niall Kenny description: First edition possibly 1801 (2 copies recorded: Library of Congress, from Thomas Jefferson's personal library, and National Library of Australia), a single copy of an 1803 3rd edition in Kennel club library (see Jones 963); an American edition in 1818; interestingly the vignette on the title page is clearly an engraving on top of the printed text, (confirmed by the fact that its position differs on the BL copy from this one) and the one plate has two further vignettes that are engraved separately onto the same page; in fact they look like the engravings used for the labels for Blaine's medicine bottles. |
