Description:
Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, first edition, 1982. Cloth, 4to, 32 cm,. xiv, 599 pp, 1 plate. From the blurb: "There was certainly a collection of books at Lincoln Cathedral in the twelfth century, and its origins were perhaps earlier still; but little interest seems to have been taken in building up the library until the second half of the seventeenth century, with the appointment in 1660 of the bibliophile Michael Honywood, a Fellow of Christ's College, Cambridge, as Dean. The present Wren Library's collection of some 8,000 printed books is based largely on his private library, bequeathed to the Dean and Chapter of Lincoln on his death in 1681. Much of Honywood's library was put together during seventeen years of voluntary exile in the Low Countries from 1643. It is consequently rich in sixteenth- and seventeenth- century continental literature, including rare Italian plays, European pamphlets and broadsides interpreting the English political situation, a collection of… Read More

[Privately printed], London, first edition, 1888. Quarter-morocco and Roxburghe boards with gilt rule, marbled endpapers, 4to,. [1], 199, 3, [1] pp. From The Library, Volume 2, 1890: "Mr. Gibbs has recently distributed to his friends and fellow members of the Roxburghe Club, copies of the very handsomely printed catalogue of the libraries at St. Dunstan's, Regent's Park and at Aldenham House. Mr. Gibbs's collections are rich in Bibles and Liturgies and in works relating to Charles I. They contain also a goodly array of first editions of English classics, which have been wisely supplemented by the reprints of Prof. Arber, Dr. Grosart and other industrious editors. As the catalogue is privately printed we have no right to subject it to minute criticism. We may note, however, that while each individual title appears to have been written with considerable care, for lack of a little editing the inconsistency of the headings is quite glaring."

The catalogue of printed books was prepared by Nicholas Carlisle and that of Manuscripts by Henry Ellis. According to the Encyclopedia of Library and Information Science, the Catalogue of the Printed Books "was reputed to be the first true dictionary catalog; it used the duplicate entry approach within a single alphabet, including catchword or subject word for anonymous works as well as for those the authors of which were known. This practice, however, was followed to a limited extent in the Philadelphia Association Library Company Catalogue of 1765. Library label on front inside wrapper, wrappers worn and chipped with loss of a piece from the rear wrapper, most of spine-panel lost, several corners dog-eared, faint waterstaining to lower foredge corners of first few leaves, contents otherwise Good.

Coulthurst Trust, Gargrave, first edition, 1964. Cloth, 4to, 29 cm,. [5], 417 pp. A catalogue of the library established early in the 17th century at Skipton and based on bequests and donations from Silvester and William Petyt. There are about 5,500 entries representing perhaps 4,000 works, since everything is analytically catalogued and cross-referenced in detail. The books are overwhelmingly English and the latest date of publication is 1710. A contemporary review noted that "The majority relate to the theological controversies of the later seventeenth century, with a sprinkling of S.T.C. books. Thus works by Baxter, Prynne, Burnet, and Joseph Hall are numerous, as are Civil War and Commonwealth tracts, though other subjects are represented: such as history (Holinshed, Heylyn, Camden, Froissart, Grimestone); geography (Purchas, Mercator, Brunei); science (Hartlib, Evelyn, John Harris), to take a few.
