Additional description
Bound with three other publications by Samuel Pegge in a volume lettered Dr. Pegge's antiquarian works . Volume contents: 1. Memoirs of the life of Roger de Weseham, 1761. -- 2. The life of Robert Grosseteste, 1793. -- 3. Annales Eliae de Trickingham, 1789. -- 4. A sylloge of the remaining authentic inscriptions relative to the erection of our English churches, 1787. Made-up set (one of 2 vols.), assembled for Pegge's grandson Sir Christopher Pegge by the publisher and antiquary John Nichols. A letter from Nichols to Sir Christopher Pegge, dated March 18th, 1808, is tipped in at the front of the first volume, and supplies information on the collection a fire at Nichols's warehouse apparently destroyed all the remaining stock of Pegge's works, some of the items in these 2 volumes being therefore the sole survivors (unfortunately not indentified by Nichols)
