Sobre este artículo
Apparent 19th century reprint of the 17th century original. Very Good+. A very good copy in brown cloth with gilt titles on leather spine labels A record of the proceedings of the House of Lords during a tumultuous period of English history, leading up to the English Civil War
This appears to be a reprint from the early 1800's of the earlier originals The front pastedown has two noteworthy bookplates, those of Lord Napier, apparently the 9th Earl Napier, and Plummer of Middlestead It also has an personal library inventory label from Sunderland Hall, in Selkirk, owned by the Napier family
William John Napier, 9th Lord Napier, Baron Napier (Chinese: (1786 â€" 1834) was a British Royal Navy officer and trade envoy in China He was the first British representative to suggest seizing Hong Kong In a dispatch to Lord Palmerston on 14 August 1834, he suggested a commercial treaty, backed by an armed force, be done to secure the rights and interests of European merchants in China He recommended that a small British force "should take possession of the Island of Hongkong, in the eastern entrance of the Canton River, which is admirably adapted for every purpose"
Note: This large volume is quite heavy (approx 9 lb) Shipment to any buyer outside the US will require significant additional shipping charges Within the US, my policy of free shipping will still apply 724 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.
