Sobre este artículo
William Gordon, 1759. Leather Binding. Fine/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" xii + 436pp. Beautifully bound in full brown speckled calf in period dress, spine with raised bands, red morocco label, and tooling in gilt and blind. Some very light foxing and light wear in places, else still a beautiful copy. Includes MacKenzie's advocacy of tennis, golf (and the seemingly inevitable cold bath!) as means to improved health.
