Our stock is a very varied one, but perhaps the most notable portions of it are those relating to Early Poetry and Dramatic Literature, Sport, Angling, Gardening, and Naval and Military subjects. There is also a fine selection of first editions of books by celebrated authors and of works illustrated by such esteemed artists as Cruikshank, Phiz, Rowlandson, Leech, etc. Booklabel of the Bibliotheca Lindesiana and signature of the bookbinding historian G D Hobson on front pastedown endpaper.
