JOHN DENTON'S HISTORY OF CUMBERLAND
by John Denton; Angus Winchester
Published by The Surtees Society; Cumberland & Westmorland Antiquarian & Archaeological Society. 1st thus. 2010
Fine condition in a nearly fine dustwrapper. A new, critical edition of the manuscript history of Cumberland, replacing that published in 1887 by Richard S. Ferguson under the title An Accompt of the most considerable Estates and Families in the County of Cumberland. This new edition attempts to reconstruct as much as possible of the original text from surviving copies and to identfy the sources from which it was drawn, enabling factual accuracy of Denton's work to be assessed. Edited by Angus Winchester. Green cloth boards, gilt title to spine.
Dustwrapper is very slightly grubby else a fine copy.
