English-language dictionaries, 1604-1900: the catalog of the Warren N. and Suzanne B. Cordell Collection

by Robert Keating O'Neill

$125 · Offered by Rulon-Miller Books

First edition

New York: Greenwood Press, 1988 . First edition, 8vo, pp. xxix- xxx , 480- 481 ; portrait frontispiece of Cordell; fine in original red cloth stamped in gilt and black. Chastized by me in a contemporary review, the work is not without merit. I still use it for occasional collations, a deficiency in Vancil. It also boasts a foreword by Suzanne Cordell and the reprinting of Warren Cordell's Remarks from Koda's seminal catalogue of the collection. Item #42048
