London: Printed by William Bowyer ... and Sold by John Whiston, 1744.. [4],xliv, 3 plates of monastic arms, [10],722,[54]pp. Folio. Old calf, neatly rebacked to style (but with incorrect date at toe of spine). Portrait. Foretips a bit worn, binding a bit rubbed, light occasional foxing, but a very good copy. Second, considerably enlarged edition, published under the auspices of the Society for the Encouragement of Learning. The first edition was published at Oxford in 1695, and by 1709 Tanner had ready a second, improved edition. However, that edition never appeared, though much of the additional material was incorporated into this edition, which was edited by his brother, John Tanner. The Bowyer ledgers record the edition consisted of 500 copies. There are a few early annotations, and a correction or two to the text, and an 1846 inscription on the front pastedown indicating this copy was a gift of another Thomas Tanner in 1846. ESTC T97254.
