Later half-calf over marbled boards. · Register: 2º: A^6(-A1) B-L^6 M^8 N-Z^6 2A^8 2B-N^6. · Condition: Extremities rubbed. Pages clean and bright. Lacks A1, the initial blank. · Comments: Two rival editions were published in 1635, the result of a controversy between the assignees of John More, who had the patent for the publication of law books, and the Stationers Company, which claimed the copyright, having first published the book in 1618 when the English Stock owned the law patent. It is unclear whether Dalton was involved with either publication; the pagination (including irregularities) of both 1635 editions is the same as the 1630 edition. · References: STC 6211; S107283.
