Summary
Bibliographic description
5 v. in 1 : ill., port. ; fol. Imperfect: copy has volumes misbound in the order vol. 1, vol. 4, vol. 3, vol. 5, vol. 2. Provenance: eighteenth century manuscript inscription “Davenport Talbot”, i.e. William Davenport Talbot, 1764-1800, on recto of first free end-paper. A leaf of paper bearing seventeenth? century manuscript annotations is loosely inserted between leaves Ddd4 and Ddd5. Binding: seventeenth century vellum with yapp edges over boards; manuscript title "Meursii Historica" in a capitalized eighteenth? century Roman hand on spine; this manuscript title appears to be written on top of an earlier manuscript title, which is now illegible.
