Armorial bookplate of the Rev. Loddington This so-called volume II, first published in 1727, and distinguishable by the definite article at the beginning of the title, enjoyed a separate publishing existence from Bailey's An Universal Etymological Dictionary. The work contains an abundance of interesting additions (many from correspondents and contributors - a now accepted practice in lexicography), accents (here first introduced in dictionaries), woodcuts in the text, and heraldic, sporting, military and navigational terms, plus a 36-p. section of canting terms and a 22-p. section of proper names, complete with etymologies. Commercially, the book paved the way for Bailey's next undertaking, the seminal Dictionarium Britannicum which Johnson used…

Description:
T. Cox, at the Lamb, 1727. Hardcover. Very Good. Volume 1 is the 13th edition. London: R. Ware, J. & P. Knapton, T. Longman, S. Birt, C. Hitch, J. Hodges, S. Austen, C. Corbett, J. Davidson, J. and J. Rivington, J. Hinton, J. Ward, W. Johnston, and M. Cooper, 1749 (includes one ad at rear). Volume II is the first edition from 1727 (ends at Finis after Zoophytes, possibly an original blank leaf following.) Unformly bound, probably in the 19th century in full brown leather with burgundy leather spine labels, marbled endpapers, edges stained red. Repaired, probably in the 19th or early 20th century with joint repairs. Some wear to leather, but an attractive set. The mismatched dates mean you get one first edition and one with "considerable improvements." One of the most important of English language dictionaries.

Early edition of An Universal Etymological English Dictionary by Nathan Bailey rebound in quarter calf with marbled boards. A lovely copy of the most popular dictionary in eighteenth century England, completing thirty editions with its last being in 1802.

Externally, smart. There is some light rubbing to the head and tail of the spine, and some bumping to the extremities. The front hinge is strained but firm. Internally, firmly bound.
