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.

This particular facsimile contains an insightful introduction on Alken's illustrations, written by British art collector and journalist Joseph Grego, and an introductory notice on Nimrod written by H.C. A friend of his subject, Nimrod's biography on Mytton is perhaps more famous than the larger-than-life figure himself, and such is due to his brilliant recounting of Mytton's various exploits, including bribing voters into parliament, attempting to jump over a tollgate with horse and carriage, and many other wild stories In the publisher's original green cloth.
