Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. An attractive facsimile printing of the second enlarged edition of the amusing biography, including a colour title lead, and notes on Alken and Nimrod. A charming facsimile of the Second revised and enlarged edition of the Memoirs of the Life of the Late John Mytton, the influential biography on the Regency rake, eccentric and politician, written by sport journalist and author Charles James Apperley under the pseudonym Nimrod.
