1825Sm. 8vo., First Edition, with an engraved portrait frontispiece after Eckstein, engraved and printed titles (the former by Heath) and a folding plate containing twenty-two humorous depictions of London's 'tavern clubs', frontispiece, engraved title and folding plate very lightly damp-marked; mid-nineteenth century half morocco, marbled boards, gilt back, marbled edges, marbled endpapers, covers a little age-marked, corners lightly bruised, very neatly rebacked with old backstrip laid down and original endpapers preserved, a very good, tight copy of a very scarce work. The frontispiece portrays Christopher Brown, Secretary to the 'Free & Easy Counsellors under the Cauliflower' who were predominantly (and most appropriately) booksellers. The folding plate affords us such delights as 'The Belle Sauvage', 'The Tanner of Joppa' and 'George and the Dragon'. Even then, it seems, the tavern was a haven of tranquillity for the hard-pressed professional male. SCARCE. We can trace no other edition, though a popular work with the title 'Tavern Anecdotes and Sayings' was compiled for Charles Hindley and issued in several editions during the 70s and 80s.

Sold from an institution with its cancelled bookplate on front paste-down and small neat stamps on title and plate versos. With a personal bookplate on front free endpaper. An important account of one of the key periods in the history of the Carthusians in London. In 1535, when the majority of Carthusians refused the Oath of Supremacy Chauncy was one of the few to concede, an act that he was never thereafter able to reconcile with his conscience. With the accession of Queen Mary hopes for a Catholic restoration were revived and Chauncy was elected prior of a small gathering of monks at Sheen, but the dramatic events of 1558 forced them to flee to Bruges. After many relocations in the Low Countries, Chancy died at Bruges in 1581. His vivid account of the martyrdom of most of his fellow London Carthusians (supported by graphic, almost gruesome, plates showing the various forms of torture and execution) was evidently one attempt at restoring his faith. Very scarce.
