Item Description: | Maps on lining-papers. "This edition is intended to contain the full text of Gulliver's travels as Jonathan Swift originally wrote it. The first edition printed by Motte in 1726, has been followed. But Motte had wrought many changes, and made many mistakes. The Dean himself corrected most of these upon the pages of a copy owned by his friend Charles Ford. All of these corrections are here made"--P. [1]. "Of this edition of Gulliver's travels, fifteen hundred copies have been printed for the members of the Limited Editions Club by Norman T.A. Munder & Company of Baltimore, with the illustrations by Alexander King." |
