Hard Cover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. First Edition. This is from the dustwrapper: " Richard Carew is known as the author of THE SURVEY OF CORNWALL. First published in 1602, long out of print, and now a very rare volume, it is still the most entertaining of all guidebooks to that county, and a vivid record of life in Elizabethan England. But it is of much more than regional importance; it is one of the best prose books of its period and a minor classic of our language. Carew's other works are scarcely known today, for most of them have never been reprinted and are virtually unobtainable. Yet the great quality of his prose was first shown in his EXAMINATION OF MEN'S WITS; GODFREY OF BULLOIGNE is one of the first of the great series of Elizabethan translations; THE EXCELLENCY OF THE ENGLISH TONGUE is an important critical essay containing an early reference to Shakespeare, and A HERRING'S TAIL, of which only three copies are known, is among the most amusing of Elizabethan fantasies, a mock-heroic poem in which a snail attacks a weather-cock on the spire of Uther Pendragon's tomb at Tintagel. The present volume contains almost the whole of the SURVEY, all that is most interesting to the reader in this second Elizabethan age, making it available for the first time in a convenient, modemized. and annotated form. It also contains what Carew so much coveted for a projected second edition ofhis book, the ten Maps of Cornwall and its Hundreds, drawn by John Norden in the first decade of the seventeenth century; apart ttom their aesthetic merit an invaluable aid to the appreciation of the SURVEY. The short EXCELLENCY OF THE ENGLISH TONGUE is given in full, A HERRiNG'S TAIL is printed for the first time since 1598. and there are extracts from THE EXAMINATION OF MEN'S WITS and GODFREY OF BULLOIGNE. Mr. Halliday has written a long critical and biographical Introduction based on original research, much of it at Antony House where he has discovered two Manuscript books by Carew's son Richard, memoirs written between 1630 and 1640, containing much new information about his father. The innate modesty ofCarew, the remoteness of his dwelling, and the multitude ofhis great contemporaries in and about London have obscured his fame, but RICHARD CAREW OF ANTONY establishes him as a distinguished writer of the age of Shakespeare and Elizabeth I." Black cloth with gilt lettering on the spine in buff dustwrapper with red and black lettering and crest. Illustrated with a frontispiece portrait of Richard Carew and ten maps by John Norden, 334 pages, 6.5 X 9.25 inches.
