Sobre este artículo
Edinburgh: Printed for the Author: sold by George Stewart, 1716. FIRST EDITION, folio, pp. vii, [i], iv, iii, [i], 46, *46-**46, 47-48, 51-54, 53-182, 181-286, 283-286, 291-462, *462-**462, 463-502 (as called for). Twentieth-century mid-brown calf, spine gilt in compartments, tan morocco label, edges sprinkled red. Somewhat soiled and stained throughout, dampmark to title-page and following leaf. Binding slightly scratched, front joint cracking at foot, a touch of wear to head of spine. George Crawfurd (d. 1748) compiled this substantial study at the urging of his father-in-law, the historian James Anderson, at the time struggling to find patronage following the Act of Union. ‘As the first publication upon the Peerage of Scotland, this work is deserving of great praise’ (Moule). ESTC T144899; Moule 429.
