1791réf. 15114M. Luckman Coventry and J. Mathews 18 Strand London 1791. 2 parts in one vol. 12mo. on laid paper with an engraved frontispiece and 8 engraved plates some mild age-staining rather heavier on frontispiece and some plates contemporary name on title; strongly and attractively bound in early nineteenth-century half roan marbled boards tooled in gilt back with four flat bands elaborately tooled in gilt second compartment lettered in gilt red sprinkled edges a very good firm copy in well-preserved period binding. With three pages of hymns and single-page publisher's advertisement at rear. L6 has short tear not affecting text and neat repair at upper margin. The work is divided into two parts as often. Burder was a Congregationalist minister sometime active in Coventry who began life as an engraver but subsequently played an important role in the founding of the RTS. His edition of 'The Pilgrim's Progress' 1786 is the first to be divided into chapters and was frequently reprinted. This is apparently the second Coventry printing; we have a note of an earlier 1790 version issued by Luckman & Suffield. In the earlier issue the pagination is similar but the plates include a frontispiece to each part; here the number of plates remains the same but all are numbered for inclusion in the first part. Rare. ESTC lists only the 1786 edition. M. Luckman, Coventry and J. Mathews, 18 Strand, London, hardcover
