A treatise on dry rot
Author
Bowden, Ambrose
Seller
Ten Pound Island Book Co. (United States)
Description
London, 1815. Color lithographed plates. xviii, (2 pages plates), 185 pp. I know... dry rot is not a particularly enthralling subject. But it was of great concern to the Royal Navy, and Bowden gives the matter thorough treatment here. This is an early book on the subject. More importantly, perhaps, it is also a very early use of color lithography in book publishing. The two plates showing samples of dry rot are rather arresting. From the Scott collection of marine architecture, with their bookplate. Scott 517. Bound in contemporary full diced calf with gilt dentelles and elaborate spine decoration.

Description
London: printed for Dan. Brown, Tim. Goodwin, John Walthoe, M. Newborough, John Nicholson , Benj. Took, D. Midwinter, and Fran. Coggan, 1707. First edition, 8vo, pp. [584]; woodcut illustrations in the text, primarily heraldic; leaves B7 and B8 with odd smudge (not obscuring any text); slight worm track to margins of first several leaves; all else very good and sound in recent mottled calf-backed marbled boards, gilt-lettered direct on spine. "The first English dictionary to make any considerable use of woodcuts; the next development in this respect does not appear until 1727, when Bailey in his Universal Etymological English Dictionary, Volume II, illustrates scientific as well as heraldic terms" (Starnes & Noyes, p. 94). Often passed off as a later edition of Blount because of its similar title and design, this dictionary, while owing a debt to Blount, is in fact a new work by an anonymous author who placed an emphasis on science, which Starnes & Noyes call "the most formative and forward-looking feature" of it. In fact, pages [7-8] are proposals for printing Harris' Lexicon Technicum. Alston V, 89.

This digest of statutes with explanatory glosses was the first book of its kind. Conceived for the layman, it was intended to be a pocket companion for the traveler and a useful addition to his reference shelf. The anonymous editor felt a need for this book because the British were a mobile people "whose Dominions and Factories lie dispersed in every Quarter of the habitable World, whose Traffick is unlimited, and extends to every Thing that either Earth or Seas produce" (v). Equally valuable to social historians, it documents the difficulties and dangers of eighteenth-century travel.
