Description: A DESCRIPTION OF THE ISLE OF THANET, AND IN PARTICULAR THE TOWN OF MARGATE, etc. A booklet designed to attract visitors to the seaside resort on the southeast English coast, providing information of accommodations, baths, local sights, etc., etc. The book, the first and apparently only edition, was published in 1765, and this is the only copy of the original edition currently for sale online. The condition, unfortunately, is only fair. The book is disbound, and, along with the covers, the title page, the map, and the book catalog in the back of the book are also missing. Aside from these obvious flaws, what is left is well-bound and remains in very good shape, with only minor signs of age and use; the illustration of "machines for bathing" is present. A very rare curiosity, almost never on the market. Measures 4.25" X 7", 72 pages. Ships promptly & securely.
