Sobre este artículo
London: Smith and Elder, Fraser, Weale, Williams, and Reid, 1839. 58pp. With an engraved frontispiece. Original publisher's printed mauve wrappers. Rubbed and dulled, backstrip worn. Internally clean and crisp. Presentation copy, ink inscription to upper wrapper: 'The Revd. Canon Conway / Rector / from the Author'. A presentation copy of the second edition (printed in the same year as the first) of an authoritative survey of the progress of the Westminster Improvement Company, intended to solicit further attention to plans to develop the area. The Gentlemen's Magazine (Vol. XI, p.180) received the pamphlet favourably: 'Independently of the matters immediately relating to the company, Mr Bardwell has compressed into this tract a great body of interesting topographical information on the site and buildings of the ancient city of Westminster, which will be valuable and amusing to those who are not immediately interested in the objects of the Westminster Improvement Company.' . Second edition. 8vo.
