Notes

A rare edition of this abridgement of Goldsmith's history of Greece, unlocated by ESTC - but likely largely identical to the 1791 and 1798 editions recorded there, which feature many of the same booksellers in the imprint but in slightly different order. This copy features a bookseller's label from T. Poole of Eastgate Row in Chester, the border of which indicates his supply of 'Lottery Commissions, Genuine Patent Medicines; Maps and Prints, Medallions, &c.' and 'Schools supplied on the lowest terms'.
