Description
Lynn: printed for the author. By W. Whittingham, 1770. 4to, 3 parts in 1, pp. [12], 151, [1], 113, [1], 92; original blue paper-covered boards, cream paper shelfback, printed orange label on spine; upper joint slightly cracked, and lower joint starting at the top, corners bumped and slight chipping at spine extremities; all else very good and clean. Contains three translations from the French by Dorothy Young, a close friend of Fanny Burney's, from two separate French texts, each paginated individually, and the second in two parts (separately paginated). The first is Observations on the Greeks by the Abbé de Mably. The second is The History of the City of Paris, 1763, by De St. Foix. Among the 220 or so subscribers (who took about 280 copies) are Charles Burney and Mrs. Burney (who took six copies), David Garrick, Arthur Young, and nearly 60 women. Harvard, Case Western, National Library of Scotland, BL, and University of South Africa seem to be all of the tangible copies in OCLC.
