IN GREAT BRITAIN.
Chronicled from the Earliest to the Present Time.
By WILLIAM ANDREWS, F.R.H.S.,
Author of “Bygone England,” “Curiosities of the Church,”
“Old-Time Punishments,” ETC.
Only 400 copies printed, each copy numbered, and only 20 remain
on sale. Three curious full-page illustrations.
This work furnishes a carefully prepared account of all the great Frosts occurring in this country from A.D. 134 to 1887. The numerous Frost Fairs on the Thames are fully described, and illustrated with quaint woodcuts, and several old ballads relating to the subject are reproduced. It is tastefully printed and elegantly bound.
