Motte, Date: 1726. 2nd Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. Printed for Benj. Motte, 1726. frontispiece portrait (in second state) and 6 further plates. A mixed set, with Volume One the second edition (Teerink AA) and Volume Two the third edition (Teerink B). The first three editions were once considered to be different issues of a single first edition. Later bibliographical analysis demonstrated that they were separate editions, each set from the previous, but Teerink, acknowledging the work done to identify them, still thought it advisable to stick to the well established practice of calling the three 1726 editions first, in part because both the printer and the author thought of them that way. Very good condition, handsomely bound in leather, with the Volume I leather label missing from one spine. With the bookplate, dated 1894, of Edwin B. Holden, the one time president of the Grolier Club and the builder of a renowned collection. Housed in a custom-made collector's slipcase. 1726. Motte US

Early mixed printing with 1st volume being Teerink's AA (second) edition, and 2nd volume the B (third) edition.<br/><br/> Frontispiece portrait of Gulliver in the second state, as usual, with vertical chain lines and the lettering around the oval frame. This is Teerink's "AA" state of the first edition. The first 3 Motte printings from 1726 were long considered to be different issues of a single first edition but later bibliographical analysis showed them to be separate editions. Teerink still thought it advisable to stick to the practice of calling them all 'first editions, partly since both printer and author thought of them that way. and precede the 1727 edition, which says "second edition, corrected" on the title-page. --Teerink 290 & 291; PMM 185.<br/><br/> 1726.

London: Benjamin Motte, Date: 1731. Second issue of the 1727 third edition of GULLIVER'S TRAVELS with 1731 cancel title pages and divisional title pages [Teerink 295]. Includes the four maps, two plans and the four illustrations as in the 1727 issue as well as 12 pages of Verses (Teerink calls alternately for none, 20 or 24 pp). No frontis portrait present (not called for but sometimes found in this issue). THIS COPY ANNOTATED WITH EXTENSIVE CONTEMPORARY COMMENTARY, EMENDATIONS AND AMENDATIONS TO THE TEXT SOMETIMES EXTENDING TO SEPARATE LEAVES WHICH HAVE BEEN BOUND IN (or interleaved). Partial name at head of first volume title page -- "Ch. Wren" -- is the only clue to the identity of the annotator whose notes herein range from his own thoughts on the text ("CW") to those of John Boyle ("Lord Orrery") a writer and friend of Swift's who published REMARKS ON THE LIFE AND WRITINGS OF JONATHAN SWIFT (1751); John Hawkesworth ("Hawks") who edited and published an edition of Swift's works (1754-1755); and Swift himself ("the Dean"). "CW" has, it would appear, also made attempts to bring the text inline with that of Faulkner's Dublin edition of 1735 which is thought to be closer to Swift's original version which was reportedly bowdlerized by Motte for original publication. In fresh, fine 20th-century full leather bindings. Age not withstanding, altogether remarkably fine with repairs to upper edges of title pages. 1731. Benjamin Motte US

A mixed set, the first volume being from the Teerink AA (second) edition (with the word Captain on the title page broken after Cap and then continued on the next line) and the second volume from the Teerink B (third) edition (with no comma after Year on special IV title page). The first three editions were once considered to be different issues of a single first edition. Later bibliographical analysis demonstrated that they were separate editions, each set from the previous, but Teerink, acknowledging the work done to identify them, still thought it advisable to stick to the well-established practice of calling the three 1726 editions first, in part because both the printer and the author thought of them that way. Very good in leather bindings and highly gilt-decorated spines. The first volume measures 19.2 cm tall and the second volume is 20.3 cm tall. Housed in a custom-made collectors slipcase.

Gulliver's Travels, or Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World, In Four Parts, by Lemuel Gulliver, First a Surgeon, and then a Captain of Several Ships is a 1726 prose satire by the Irish writer and clergyman Jonathan Swift, satirising both human nature and the "travellers' tales" literary subgenre. It is Swift's best known full-length work, and a classic of English literature. Swift claimed that he wrote Gulliver's Travels "to vex the world rather than divert it". The book was an immediate success. The English dramatist John Gay remarked "It is universally read, from the cabinet council to the nursery." In 2015, Robert McCrum released his selection list of 100 best novels of all time in which Gulliver's Travels is listed as "a satirical masterpiece".
