8vo, pp. [ii], 122; with a single page of advertisements at the very end of the volume (not part of the original collation); first leaf of the introduction becoming detached; original green sand-grain cloth, title stamped in gilt on upper cover, and harp on lower cover (very slightly stained); gilt edges. First edition: printed in Chester by J. Dixon at the Courant Office. Jones came from Wrexham, just over the border. There was a second edition, printed in London in 1837, in which Jones disowned this edition which he says was not authorised; and in fact the errata leaf before the text admits that he had not seen the proof sheets. On the other hand, the final leaf consists of advertisements for other books by Jones, either published or forthcoming, which seems a little odd for an edition not sanctioned by him.
