A note from BCD: It is the opinion of this writer that any book by Sestini will always reward its owner in some way. In this particular case, both Clerk in 1895 and Warren very recently have improved our knowledge tremendously when we consider what Sestini is offering here. And yet, the undeniable charm of this two hundred year old book that once belonged to Waddington, with its excellent engravings, still fascinates.
