Chronology: or, The Historian's Vade-Mecum

By Rev Dr John Trusler. Printed for the author, London, 1774.

Seventh Edition, Corrected. Miniature or small slim full leather binding measuring 12 x 7.5 cm. 32mo. 105 pages + 2 pages of tables + 1 page showing new publications available. Engraved frontispiece. 

CONDITION:
Good condition. The original full calf leather binding is in good condition with no cracking to the hinges but there is a very small piece missing from the top of the spine (see picture provided). Original label remains in good condition. Original endpapers are good. Bookplate pasted to the inside front board. Contemporary initialing to verso of frontis and to the title page. The pages are in good condition throughout and free from foxing, stains, etc. All contents present. When originally bound the binder has trimmed the top margin of the text block very close the printed page numbers and in some instances just nick the top of some of these. But overall in good condition and seems to be pretty scarce as no other examples are for sale online at the time of this one being listed.
