London: M. A. Pittman, 1831. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good. Octavo, 503pp., extra-illustrated. A very good copy in later 19th century 3/4 red morocco and marbled boards. Marbled endpapers. Top edge gilt. Gently worn at two corners, and the spine just a tinge darkened; a very good example, internally clean. This copy specially bound with at least a dozen plates of horses, mostly dating from around the time of the book's publication. There are two maps, depicting areas around Shropshire, Herefordshire and Leicestershire, which presumably held significance in riding culture of the period. A hand-colored folding plate etitled the "Suffolk Punch Horse" is dated 1807. Some of the plates are moderately foxed. Altogether a handsome example of a Regency period English equestrian volume, noted in pencil on a front blank by a 19th century bookseller as a "unique copy" due to its specially bound-in plates.
