Bibliotheca Americana; or a Chronological Catalogue of Books, Pamphlets, State Papers, &c., upon the Subject of North and South America. With an Introductory Discourse on the Present State of Literature in those Countries. [By H. Homer.] 4to. _London._ 1789.

This book, which has been variously ascribed to Dalrymple, Homer, Long, and with more probability, by Homer himself, to Reid, was the fullest English work on the subject up to its date; but its complicated arrangements, errors of date, unintelligible abbreviations, and frequent repetitions mar its utility. Some of the remarks in the introduction are curious, if not true. The errata, if all printed, would fill a dozen pages. See _M. Rev._, II. 474; Rich, I. 354.

The second volume is devoted to a bibliographical and literary account of all the works printed by, or ascribed to, the press of Caxton, including many books undescribed by Dr. Dibdin and other bibliographers, accompanied with most careful collations, and a list of copies of books printed by Caxton, in number more than four hundred and fifty, now in the public and private libraries of Great Britain.

"This is entered in the British Museum Catalogue under the name of [Bandinel (Bulkeley)]."--POWER. Very properly so; it was made under his direction as librarian, and includes the contents of the Catalogue in 2 vols., folio, _Oxon_, 1738. Next to the British Museum the Bodleian is the finest library in Great Britain, and is, perhaps, the third best collection in the world.--J. S.

In the matter of dates and titles very incorrect, but valuable for the extracts it contains from the voyages of the last century. Vol. VI. relates to America. Dibdin pronounces it "an indispensable performance," in which judgment we do not agree.

This work discusses the qualifications of a bibliographer, the rarity and depreciation of books, the invention of printing, &c.

H. for Robert Clavel, at the Peacock in St. Paul's Church-Yard._ MDCXCVII.

No more published. "The conclusion, showing the present state of the Protestant religion in Maryland," etc., occupies pp. 125-130. The author states that the object of this bibliographical treatise was to give those who went to Virginia, Maryland, and the American plantations, an idea of the books they should take.

By Richard Waley Bridgman. 8vo, pp. xviii, 430. _London._ 1807.

Though this work is of an early date it will be found of interest to the law student. It has the advantage of two good indexes, one of authors, and the other a classified list of subjects.

This work must ever be highly valued as affording the only complete index to the rich repertory of Arabian Manuscripts in the Escurial, and for the ample evidence which it exhibits of the science and mental culture of the Spanish Arabs. Gibbon remarks: "The execution of this work does honour to the Spanish press. The MSS., to the number of 1851, are judiciously classified by the Editor, and his copious extracts throw some light on the Mahommedan literature and history of Spain."

The reader may admit which simile he pleases, or reject both! but in sober earnestness it is very rare and unconscionably dear."--DIBDIN. _Per contra_, it usually sells very cheap.

Of the New York edition some copies are on large paper, and five copies were printed on India paper. In the New York reprint all the "Addenda and Corrigenda" which are prefixed to the first volume of that edition are placed in their proper positions. The "Index," also, is greatly enlarged. This valuable and interesting work is, in fact, an extended edition of the author's catalogue of the Duke of Bridgewater's library. It describes books which, for the most part, are so scarce, that but few American libraries possess them; and Mr. Collier has performed an acceptable office in quoting largely from the works he has described.

These early and rare books often contain much amusing matter and considerable information, even at this our advanced state of civilization. Those who come in from a walk on a cold winter's day are here cautioned to use a kerchief ere they presume to look at a rare book, and also to avoid having books opened during meals.

DIBDIN. Bibliomania; or Book-Madness; A Bibliographical Romance. Illustrated with Cuts. By Thomas Frognall Dibdin, D.D. New and Improved Edition ... including a Key to the assumed characters in the Drama. Medium 8vo. _London: H. G. Bohn._ MDCCCXLII.

This edition was undertaken by Mr. Walmsly. It contains a key to the characters, etc., and a supplement, edited by Dr. Dibdin himself. The copies on large paper, imp. 8vo, have titles-pages for two volumes.

"The _Bibliomania_ is written in dialogues or conversations, the characters introduced are well-known book collectors of the author's acquaintance. The great value of the work is in the notes, which abound with anecdotes of books and book collectors, and an account of the rarer articles in their collections, and the prices at which they were sold, extracted from the sale catalogues. It will be always consulted as an authority."--LOWNDES.

"The _Bibliomania_ is evidently formed in the first instance on the plan of honest Isaac Walton's _Complete Angler_; with conspicuous marks of the author's being deeply versed in the _Battle of the Books_, and a familiar acquaintance with old English literature, and occasionally with the discussions of Yorick. Under the shape of dramatic dialogue, the reader is equally entertained, and instructed; the abstruser parts, with the historic details, being thrown into the form of notes. It would now be useless to pass an encomium on this work, as its merits are so fully established as to have more than doubled the original price of a volume now with difficulty to be obtained."--_Gent's. Magazine._

"You have contrived to strew flowers over a path which, in other hands, would have proved a very dull one; and all Bibliomanes must remember you long, as he who first united their antiquarian details with good-humored raillery and cheerfulness."--SIR WALTER SCOTT TO DR. DIBDIN.

Fifty copies were printed on large paper. "This catalogue contains only the works printed in the fifteenth century and the Editiones Principes. It is compiled with the greatest care and industry, and those who have had occasion to consult its pages, can testify to its accuracy and great utility. It is the finest private collection in Europe; the catalogue will ever be regarded as of the first importance to the theologian, the historian, and the critic, and as a perfect model for the bibliographer."--LOWNDES.

Also on large paper, 3 vols., imp. 8vo. "This work may be considered as a continuation of the _Bibliomania_, the same characters being introduced in the dialogues. From the information which it contains, and the splendor of the decorations and printing, it will ever be considered as a model of excellence and good taste in typography and the arts."

DIBDIN. Ædes Althorpianæ; or an Account of the Mansion, Books, and Pictures, at Althorp; the Residence of George John Earl Spencer, K.G. To which is added a Supplement to the Bibliotheca Spenceriana. By the Rev. Thomas Frognall Dibdin. 2 vols., imp. 8vo. _London: Payne and Foss._ 1822.

_See_ the author's _Reminiscences_, II. 557-94, for the interesting account of the publication of this work, where it appears that the cost of engraving the portraits was upwards of £2,000. It was designed as a supplement to the _Bibliotheca Spenceriana_, and contains accounts of the ancestors of Earl Spencer; of the Mansion at Althorp; of the gallery, with engravings of the most important pictures; and of editions of the Scriptures, Aldine editions, and books printed in the fifteenth century, not contained in the former volumes.

Also on large paper, 3 vols., imp. 8vo. "This work contains much curious information respecting the MSS. and rare works in public and private libraries abroad. It is printed and embellished in the same style of excellence as the Doctor's other works."--LOWNDES.

"A work calculated to have as intoxicating an effect on the imagination of literary antiquaries, as the adventures of the heroes of the Round Table on all true knights, or the tales of the early American voyagers on the ardent spirits of their age. It has not passed, however, without some hostile (though unfounded) remarks from the printers, binders, and librarians of France."--WRANGHAM.

This edition omits some of the plates contained in the first, but has others which are not in that. It is esteemed for its preface, 28 pp., in which the author summarily disposes of Crapelet, Licquet, and Lesné.

Also on large paper, imp. 8vo. From an anecdote recorded at page 394 of this edition, concerning "certain buckskins," in the edition of 1823, and which is omitted in the subsequent ones, that acquired the title of the "Breeches Edition."

EDWARDS. Memoirs of Libraries; Including a Hand Book of Library Economy. By Edward Edwards. 2 vols., rl. 8vo. _London: Trübner & Co._ 1859.

A few copies printed on large paper. Contains numerous engravings from early MSS., facsimiles of types, bookbinding etc. This important work was in preparation thirteen years. Neither France nor Germany can boast of a work treating the subjects with a similar comprehensiveness, and in England the work has certainly had no predecessor. "Of the industry bestowed upon this extensive compilation, and of the marvellous condensation of fact it supplies, it is difficult to speak in terms of proper commendation; even to the most accomplished bibliographer it cannot rail to be of great service, but how much more so to the tyro, or ordinary bibliographer."--BROWNSON'S _Review_.

Folio, pp. (10), (144), 544. _Mexici: Ex novâ Typographicâ in Ædibus Authoris editioni ejusdem Bibliothecae destinatâ. Anno Domini_ 1755.

Of this rare and valuable work Vol I. only was published. It contains the most authentic notes on the literature and literary men of Mexico, and became the basis of Beristain's celebrated _Bibl. Hisp. Amer._, which appeared sixty years later. Eguiara was one of the most talented members of the Academy of Mexico. "It is unfortunate that no more of this important work was published. It is probable that not many copies were printed of this volume, as it is not often met with."--RICH, 1. 115. The remainder of the manuscript was said to be preserved in the Library of the Cathedral of Mexico. Leclerc's collation seems to differ from ours. "Ouvrage curieux, mais dont il n'a paru que le premier volume."--BRUNET.

"This is not a joke, but a very serious publication, intended not for sale, but to prime the wire-pullers at Washington to look out and provide for the poor publishing houses of Boston, New York, and Philadelphia. 'Human labor is the principal item in book-making,' they say, and therefore they ask Congress to levy a duty of 25 cents a pound on English books, to protect them against the efforts of the English authors, who are making America an English colony by sending over at reasonable rates their own books for sale."--STEVENS.
