FIRST AND ONLY EDITION. 12mo, 143 x 91 mms., pp. vii [viii blank], 93 [94 blank, 95 - 100 adverts for Ackerman imprints], circular bookplate on front paste-down end-paper, contemporary green morocco, title in gilt on front cover. A very good copy. Pablo Lozano y Casela (1749 - 1822) was one of the earliest Spaniards to become an Arabic scholar and a translator. This work is said to have been translated from the Arabic in 1793, but the earliest edition that I have found was printed in 1826. There are 500 maxims and 50 miscellaneous quotes. OCLC locates only the BL for this 1832 imprint and the Hamburg Staats und Universitatsbibliothek for the 1826 printing.
