London: J. Dodsley / G. Wilkie & J. Robinson / James Cawthorn, 1788, 1808, 1811. Hardcover. In mid-19th century half light brown calf and marbled boards, gilt titled on spine, very good, light rubbing and wear to binding. Bookplate of Thomas Fuller and his signature on the Anstey title page -- he was an architect native of Bath. With frontispiece. The Anstey is the 13th edition; the Bath Characters by Warner is a second edition from 1808, light foxing, small clipped porttion from title page (probably a previous owner's name); The Wonders of a Week at Bath appears to be a first edition from 1811 and has occasional pencil marginalia by a helpful old reader. Nice compilation of three works on Bath, all of which are satirical. Very Good. Item #H22984
