Sobre este artículo
London: Smith and Robins, Printers, King Street, Long Acre, 1842. First edition, 4to, pp. xxiv, 250; mounted lithographic frontispiece portrait of Walpole by G. Madeley after Eckhardt; woodcut title, vignettes in the text; original cloth-backed blue pictorial wrappers creased and worn; spine ends chipped, good and sound. Tipped in at the front is a printed slip from W. Forster, "of No. 4 Lower James Street, Golden Square" who "begs leave to inform the Nobility and Gentry that, by the kind permission of Mr. George Robbins, he will attend at Strawberry Hill during the whole of the View and Sale, and will be happy to undertake the commissions of those who may be kind enough to favour him with their commands." Part of the preface is a description of Strawberry Hill by W. Harrison Ainsworth. At the end (p. 250) of the volume is an admission that this present edition carries inaccuracies, all of which will be rectified in the second edition.
