An excellent copy of this very rare color-plate book. A lively and highly important account of Georgian theatrical and musical life by "our great sea-song writer" whose patriotic songs - Tom Bowling Poor Jack and others - became synonymous with the British naval spirit during the Napoleonic era. More than a memoir the work preserves the words of some 600 songs and offers a vivid firsthand record of the late eighteenth-century stage. Particularly appealing are the sixty charming circular aquatint plates delicately hand-colored and designed and etched by Miss Ann Dibdin his daughter a rare early example of female participation in English color-plate production. These small scenes of sailors taverns and domestic life - perfectly complement the tone of the songs and give the work a distinctive visual character.
