Contemporary half calf over marbled boards flat spine divided into panels by gilt rules red morocco label very neat repair to head of front joint and top of spine. Engraved title page with vignette and dedication leaf large folding map of Ireland and 289 engraved maps. Title page with early ink signature of Jos. Sabine. Moreland & Bannister p. 190; Tooley "Maps and Mapmakers" p. 94. Small signs of age and wear to the binding including slight crackling and nicks to the spine folding map with faint dampstain to tail margin two negligible ink spots to blank area on the map of the Irish Sea but A VERY APPEALING COPY quite clean and remarkably fresh internally and in an entirely solid period binding. This is the second corrected edition of the first comprehensive road atlas of Ireland offered here in especially attractive condition. In response to increasing demand for accurate maps of the country's road system the Irish House of Commons commissioned George Taylor and Andrew Skinner who together had previously produced the first road atlas of Scotland among other works to undertake a survey of the land. Taylor and Skinner completed their work in 1777 and published the first edition of their findings in 1778. This second edition includes updates to the year 1783 as well as an additional map no. 289. Renowned for their precision and detail Taylor and Skinner's maps clearly show roads crossroads and bridges as well as topographical features such as hills lakes and rivers including the direction of the water flow; landmarks such as castles churches and ruins; and the names of local landlords and their homes. The maps appear either as half-page strips or in full-page and the distances are given in both Irish and English miles 11 Irish miles being equal to 14 British miles. The robust list of subscribers which includes a number of earls viscounts lords bishops and British and Irish army men demonstrates the great need for and widespread success of this important work. Our former owner may well be the famed and controversial naturalist Joseph Sabine 1770-1837 who often signed his name as "Jos. Sabine" as seen here. He certainly had good reason to own maps of Ireland. He was from an Anglo-Irish family himself and was Honorary Secretary of the Horticultural Society a position which at the time carried great clout in the botanical community and one that presupposed knowledge of geography across the realm. DNB tells us that "Sabine played a leading part in the establishment of the society's garden first at Hammersmith and afterwards at Chiswick; in sending out David Douglas and others as collectors; in starting local societies in connection with the Horticultural Society; and in growing and distributing new and improved varieties of flowers fruits and vegetables throughout the country." While not a rare book this is the kind of volume that would have normally encountered frequent and inevitably damaging use so to find a copy as well preserved as this one is a lucky occurrence.

1898réf. 44775Bridgeport CT 1898. Very good indents and remnants of paperclips along top edges minor soling to folds on versos contents clean. 4 pp. 5 x 8 inches. Three letters from theater historian and biographer Joseph Norton Ireland to collector and biographer Douglas Taylor . 1. Letter dated December 8th 1897. 1 pp. Ireland tells Taylor of the decline in his physical and mental faculties before he summarizes his collection which includes the Treasurer's books of the Old Park Theater portraits & photographs of performers and bound sets of playbills. Finally he offers a nearly complete set of John Boydell's Shakespeare engravings for the amount of $40. 2. Letter dated December 16th 1897. 2 pp.Taylor clearly wanted the Boydell engravings as Ireland's second letter was sent with an enclosed return check to Taylor who had overpaid for the set. "I return your check for $40 as I think you misunderstand my writing 'I would see all for that amount' I then referred to the Shakespeare engravings which were at the close of my letter the small ones and the large ones and I meant to say I would sell them all large & small for that amount. I think the whole collection is worth rather more than that." 3. Letter dated March 4th 1898. 1 pp. Contains a short list of Ireland's collection of autograph letters all bound which he suspects "will be of little use" to Taylor. Ioseph Norton Ireland 1817-1898 wrote "Records of the New York Stage from 1750-1860 1866; "Mrs. Duff" 1882; and "A memoir of the professional life of Thomas Abthorpe Cooper" 1888.
