Sobre este item
London: Printed for Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme, and Brown..., 1823. FIRST EDITION. Tall 8vo, 224 x 138 mms., pp. [vi], 187 [188 colophon, 189 - 192 adverts, including half-title, engrave frontispiece (foxed), fore-edge and lower edge uncut, original boards, paper label on spine; joints slightly cracked, spine chipped at top and base, but a good copy with the autograph "Charles Armstrong" on the top marginof the half-title. A review in The Farmer's Magazine for 1824 begins, "The subject of this work must be, in a great measure, new to the landlords and farmers of Scotland; and even in England, as the author assures us, scarcely any publications of a similar nature have yet appeared. But its novelty is not the only claim that it has on the attention of these classes. The author is evidently a man of experience in his profession, and apparently moderate and impartial in his views of the numerous questions that arise between the owner and occupier. and between outgoing and entering tenants...." After a number of pages in which the work is judiciously appraised, the reviewer concludes, "When this book comes to a second edition, as we have no doubt must be soon the case, we would recommend to the author to improve it in point of arrangement...and to avoid...all local and technical expressions.... We would suggest, too, that it will add much to its value, to state the custom in other parts of England as well as in Yorkshire...." In fact the book was frequently reprinted after 1823. A much shorter review in 1823 in The Monthly Review, having affirmed the value of the work, concludes, "So far as we can judge about these matters, we think Mr. Bayldon has laid down some rules for the government of the incoming and out-going tenant, as well as that for the landlord, which will be extremely serviceable to all three."
