Sobre este artículo
London: G. Woodfall, 1801. Sixth. Very Good+. From Wikipedia:
The Annual Register (originally subtitled "A View of the History, Politicks and Literature of the Year ") is a long-established reference work, written and published each year, which records and analyses the year's major events, developments and trends throughout the world It was first written in 1758 under the editorship of Edmund Burke, and has been produced continuously since that date In its current form the first half of the book comprises articles on each of the world's countries or regions, while the latter half contains articles on international organizations, economics, the environment, science, law, religion, the arts and sport, together with obituaries, a chronicle of major events and selected documents
1775 was a momentous year for the British colonies in America, so this volume describes all of the political actions on both the British and American sides, and also describes the fighting at Lexington and Concord
This copy in full leather, with gilt tiles and ruling in red inset on spine has just modest wear, primarily cracking along exterior spine edge and very slight edge wear and scuffing at corners Although it is ex-library, it does not appear to have had much use at all There is a library label on front pastedown and penciled cataloguing info at top of title page and a light embossed library stamp on edge of title page, but otherwise no marks or damage And while pages are age toned, the text is clean with no markings Quite appealing overall 244 + 10 p TOC at end pp.

Sobre Stanley Louis Remarkable Books (IOBA)
Seller of high quality books and ephemera, emphasizing older and unusual items, such as signed or association copies. I try to offer the kind of books, at fair prices, that appeal to me, hoping that they will appeal to others also.
