Description

The Reverend Mr. Cooper is probably a fictitious character; Richard Johnson made additions to this work in 1785 and 1791, but there is no evidence that he had any responsibility for this edition. Cf. Weedon, M.J.P. Richard Johnson, p. 35-7 and 46-7.


The plates have descriptions in English. Page 126 wrongly numbered 12.
