8vo. pp. iv, 222, f. [1] (plates). Signatures: [A]4 B-P8. Cloth. Includes map. The English text of Richard of Cirencester is Henry Hatcher’s translation of 1809 (see Bib# 4103113/Fr# 398 in this collection), unacknowledged by John Giles save for a vague reference to ‘the ed. of 1809.’ The notes by Thomas Leman are plagiarized verbatim from the same source, again without acknowledgement. The Latin text is from the 1757 ‘original’ (see Bib# 4103111/Fr#396). Click here to view the Johns Hopkins University catalog record.
