Item Description: | A variant of the edition with Andrew Maunsell's name in the imprint. The last leaf is blank. The half of the genealogical tree on 2D1v was printed upside-down; this was intended to be corrected by cancels of the whole tree pasted onto 2D1v-2r, but the cancels are often simply bound in.
