Gibbon's Memoirs and Miscellaneous Works were first published in 1796 just two years after his death by his friend and literary executor Lord Sheffield. The Memoirs were compiled by Sheffield from six different incomplete manuscripts left among Gibbon's papers after his death. Originally published in a two-volume quarto edition a new and enlarged edition the present was issued in 1814 in five octavo volumes bringing to light a substantial quantity of new material gleaned from his Journal Letters and other miscellaneous papers. A year later in 1815 the original quarto edition was brought up to date with the addition of a third volume. Norton 134. Printed for John Murray Hardcover

Overall an excellent set clean and crisp internally in suitably restored bindings. This set is comprised of First Editions of all volumes except for the first volume which is from the Third Edition. Gibbon's masterful history of the Roman Empire was issued in six quarto volumes over the course of twelve years between 1776 and 1788. Modest expectations on the part of both author and publisher regarding the market for such an imposing work resulted in an initial printing of only 1000 copies of the original printing. This proved a serious miscalculation of the demand and subsequently made complete sets of the first edition difficult to come by. Within a fortnight the first edition was completely sold out. "I am at a loss" wrote Gibbon in his Memoirs "how to describe the success of the work without betraying the vanity of the writer. The first impression was exhausted within a few days; a second and third edition were scarcely adequate to the demand and the bookseller's property was twice invaded by the pyrates of Dublin. My book was on every table and almost every toilette; the historian was crowned by the taste or fashion of the day." Gibbon Miscellaneous Works and Memoirs. 2nd ed. London 1814 Vol. I. p. 223. The third edition appeared in 1777 a year after the first and second printings. Issued in an edition of 1000 copies it was more fully revised and corrected than the second which merely incorporated the errata. At the suggestion of Gibbon's friend David Hume the copious notes which previously had been gathered in the rear of the volume were now transferred to the bottom of the page. This improved format was continued throughout the remaining volumes. In combining the third edition of the first volume with the first edition of the remainder as in the present case a uniformly annotated set is thereby achieved. In 1780 the frontis portrait of Gibbon engraved by John Hall after a painting of Joshua Reynolds was issued by the publisher. With the publication of the second and third volumes in 1781 an enlarged table of contents was made available for the first volume as well as 3 folding maps all present in this copy. The map of Constantinople was frequently cropped to make it the same size as the printed page and then bound in sideways. Fewer copies exist among them the present where the wide margins were retained and the map bound in folded and the right way up. Norton J. E. A Bibliography of the Works of Ed. Gibbon. Oxford 1940.
