Edinburgh University Press, Edinburgh, first editions, 1959-60. 2 vols, cloth, 8vo, 23 cm,. x, 244 + viii, 370 pp. Approximately 12,000 entries. From the blurb: "In 1917 The Scottish History Society published Mitchell and Cash's 'Contribution to the Bibliography of Scottish Topography'. This catalogued books on Scotland and Scottish affairs from earliest times to 1916. The present work is intended as a supplement, covering the years 1916-1950. In arrangement it follows the same lines as the original work, although, over the shorter period, it is more detailed. The mesh, it is hoped, is finer; the bibliographical detail more complete. Part I records by shire, town and parish all books and major articles of topographical and general interest. The classification in Part II is by subject. Details of author, title, format, publisher and date are given. Very Good set in Very Good dustwrappers and in a slightly faded and used publisher's printed card slipcase.
