THE LIFE OF ISAAC WALTON; INCLUDING NOTICES OF HIS CONTEMPORARIES. By Thomas Zouch, D.D. F.L.S. Prebendary of Durham.

1823 1st edition. 8vo (132 x 207mm). Ppviii,93. B/w frontispiece and 17 engraved plates. Re-cased with early gilt-decorated leather laid on to both boards and spine, all edges gilt.

A new edition of Zouch's biography to coincide with the publication of the first Major edition of Walton's Compleat Angler". In the present edition... considerable corrections have been added by way of notes, the result of more recent inquiries, and an attempt to narrate all that is known respecting 'honest old Isaac Walton'. The portraits attached to this work are engraved on steel plates, from drawings after the original pictures; and the autographs, from authentic specimens in the possession of the writer. The fac-simile of the title of the first edition, in 1653, has also been added, as the copy given by Mr. Major will be found incorrect".
