London: J. Debrett 1792. “Second edition with many additions”of this work specifically on the cultivation of water meadows first published in 1779. “Francis Forbes had recommended water meadows and had given some instruction how to make and manage them and several other previous writers had done the same while the actual practice had been fairly common in parts of Wiltshire and Berkshire Gloucester and Dorset for at least two centuries…The methods of construction and management were only to be found of course by seeking through a mass of general information and some one came to the conclusion that a specific treatise on the subject was necessary. A suggestion was made to George Boswell of Piddletown Dorset a local expert that he should write such a book.”–Fussell II p. 121.

réf. 11472Both from 367 Elm Street New Haven Connecticut one on a letterhead. 12 May and 11 June 1928. Both letters fair on aged paper.

'This has been a hard letter to write and doesn't sound as cordial as I should wish . I wish I could invite you to stay with me on the night of the 15 but I live in a small apartment and have no accomodations sic for guests'. Letter Two: 10pp. small 4to. In this letter Pottle deals in details with queries regarding the publication history of three books acquired by McCamic: Boswell's 'Dorando'; 'The History of the Douglas Cause in General' by Francis Douglas of Aberdeen; and Boswell's 'Essence of the Douglas Cause'. He ends with a discussion of the current prices for the books. 'The Essence is a rare book - no copy in the British Museum though that doesn't mean much. Adam has been after a copy for years. Grant in Edinburgh put one in a catalogue for £1; he had a score of orders for it as you can guess. McKinlay being on the spot nabbed it; I gave him $50 for it. A little later he picked up another which Tinker bought for $75. . Adam has so far as I can discover the only copy of Dorando in this country a splendid copy of the large-paper first. . Tinker has had only one chance at a Dorando that was another large-paper first but while he was pondering the price the dealer decided to keep it himself.' Both from 367 Elm Street, New Haven, Connecticut (one on a letterhead). 12 May and 11 June 1928. unknown
