The Palatine Note-book.

Manchester, J. E. Cornish, 1881 to 1885. Originally issued in monthly parts.Complete set of four volumes.

The title continues " for the Intercommunication of Antiquaries, Bibliophiles, and other Investigators into the History and Literature of the counties of Lancaster, Chester etc. " A mine of out of the way information. Old half leather bindings, rubbed, but sound except that the front cover of volume four has cracked at the spine and is strengthened internally with a strip of paper. A thoroughlyl useable set. One important feature is the detailed description of the various sets of early 19th century views of Manchester.
