Original brown half publisher's brown morocco and marbled boards marbled edges marbled endpapers. Fornt joint tender. Second edition. Frontispiece aquatint. Engraved aquatint title page and numerous text illustrations. 510 pp. 1 vols. 8vo. Presentation Copy Inscribed to Junius Spencer Morgan. With the contemporary inscription from the author "J.S. Morgan Esq / with regards of the author / E.J. Lewis M.D. / Dec 6th 1858". The recipient of course was the financier and father of J.P. Morgan; four years earlier in 1854 he had taken his first big step into international banking as a partner in the firm of George Peabody & Co. and it is to be hoped that this volume provided an impetus for his interest in more recreational pursuits.

Fairfield AR. A. R.
English Foxhunting Drawings
N.p. 1880. A group of five pen and ink sketches of scenes in the hunting field. On lightweight paper attached to backing sheets each of which is signed lower right. Images average about 5 x 7 1/2 inches. 1 vols. Overall fine. A group of five pen and ink sketches of scenes in the hunting field. On lightweight paper attached to backing sheets each of which is signed lower right. Images average about 5 x 7 1/2 inches. 1 vols. Victorian Foxhunting Drawings. Evidently the work of an enthusiastic amateur these drawings are of more than routine interest as they appear to be caricatures of actual people. In one of them a group of hunters are conversing with several gunners including a carefully depicted sportsman in French military uniform who appears to be somebody of importance and other scenes show an equal attention to local physiognomies. A very pleasing evocation of late Victorian characters and sport. unknown books
