[YOUNG, EDWARD]  Love of Fame, the Universal Passion. In Seven Characteristical Satires.
London, J. Tonson. 1730, Third Edition. Full Calf, 8vo. 175pp. The interior is much better than the outside: the back cover has almost disengaged itself from the book and the front cover is delicate. The cover itself is mottled; it appears that the calf was covered with some kind of substance which is flaking away - or perhaps that's the treated top layer of calf. The interior is clean and bright; page 165 is creased, but otherwise good. Fair.
