rif. 57847Printed for R. Baldwin. London. 1786. The Tenth Edition. . pp. 384 xiv Index ii Advertisement. Engraved portrait frontispiece dated 1782 the year after she died one folding plate of stove-fires. Original sheep now worn along spine at corners and lower board edge the first half of gathering 'E' misbound one leaf with a couple of edge tears without loss LACKING the two plates at the end of the text showing Plans of a Grand Table of Two Covers with the facsimile printed signature of Mrs. Raffald on page 1 and the real signature of ANN DARWIN Oct 4th 1796 at the head of the title. Possibly ANN DARWIN 1727-1813 the fourth child of Robert Darwin and Charles Darwin's great-aunt.
