[Rarebooks] FS: Epitaphs at St. Pancras, Middlesex Cemetery -1869

[Joslin Hall Rare Books]

"A COLLECTION OF CURIOUS AND INTERESTING EPITAPHS, copied from the
monuments of Distinguished and Noted Characters in The Ancient Church and
Burial Grounds of Saint Pancras, Middlesex"

By Frederick Teague Cansick.
Published in London by J. Russell Smith: 1869.

DISCUSSION: As a collection of epitaphs these volumes are a valuable and
immense compilation, sure to be of more general interest than the title
would suggest. This set was released incrementally; the second volume,
released in 1872, expanded its coverage to other cemeteries and churches
in Saint Pancras; Volume 3, released in 1875, covers churches and
churchyards in Hornsey, Tottenham, Edmonton, Enfield, Friern Barnet, and
Hadley.

DESCRIPTION: Hardcover. 3 volumes. 5.25"x7.5", xxvi + 236 ; xxv + 294;
xxxvi + 296 pages; some black & white plates. Bound in the original green
pebbled cloth with gilt spine titles.

CONDITION NOTES: A little light cover rubbing; a little internal spotting,
endpapers somewhat discolored; front hinge of volume 3 partially torn.
Former owner's inkstamp on the endpapers and the title page of Vol. 3
(shown).

PRICE: $175~
