; it is the only volume with a half-title. In vol. IV on b
2 is a list of tracts by the author which
would make a fifth volume, but I think would not be acceptable to many readers.
This edition not in Lowndes.
This edition not in Poggendorff.
Bound for Jefferson in mottled calf, gilt backs, marbled end papers; initialled by Jefferson at sigs. I and T in each volume.
With the Library of Congress 1815 bookplate.
Entered on Jefferson’s undated manuscript catalogue, with the price
20/-. This entry would indicate that the first four volumes were acquired before the publication of the fifth, which was added
later. The original entry reads:
4. v. 12mo. 16/ changed in ink to
5.v. 20/-.
Richard Watson, 1737-1816, Bishop of Llandaff, was sometime Professor of Chemistry at Cambridge University.
