Summary
Bibliographic description
[12],594,[32]p. . fol.. Shelved and uniform with "Rerum anglicarum scriptorum veterum Tom. I." (Oxford: 1684) and "Historiae Britannicæ" (Oxford: 1691). Old ms. shelfmark on front flyleaf: S-2. The Nostell copy does not have a collective half-title reading: "Historiae Britannicae et Anglicanae scriptores XX", so seems likely to be the original issue rather than that issued to accompany the 1691 "Historiae Britannicæ".Provenance: Armorial bookplate; lettered: Eustachius Strickland. Franks 28404. [i.e.: Eustachius Strickland (1787-1840)]. Institutional armorial ink stamp on title page: Bibl. S. Germania pratis.. Binding: Morocco; gilt ruled to form a border; corners gilt tooled; spine lettered in gilt directly onto leather: 'Historiæ Britannicæ scriptores. Gale. Vol. II'.
