A contemporary translation of one of the most remarkable documents of the Elizabethan period. Illustrated with 7 plates. Crease to the frontispiece which shows John Gerard’s house, in St. Clement’s Lane.’ [when this engraving was published by N. Smith in 1798 it was thought this was the house in which the conspirators met before the Gunpowder Plot, and probably well-founded, as the lease was held by John Gerard and mentioned by the conspirators in their depositions]. A good copy, some foxing, in dusty and marked dust jacket, still a solid copy.
