xvi, 540pp. Not dated but likely 1810s. In a later library binding, strong cloth-covered boards with gilt titles and call number to spine (boards lightly worn, a little rounded at corners and spine ends and a couple of mild marks). Modern endpapers, bearing a previous owner's stamp. No title page, else internally neat and tidy with just a hint of toning. Drawing on data from the 1811 census, a revised edition of a complete gazetteer detailing the counties of England and Wales as they were in the 1810s, this edition contains nearly 200 additional or updated entries, including for Cambridge, Daventry, Bath, Battle etc. This pocket edition was issued with the maps present in parallel Octavo editions.
