Rare. A rebuttal to Spon's attack on his Athènes ancienne et nouvelle, 1675, which Spon believed to be spurious. The spat produced a small series of publications, accusing and rebutting in turn.
First and only edition; 12mo; title with small woodcut ornament, engraved map after Spon, woodcut head-pieces and decorative initials, à6 blank, later pencil underlining, occasional spotting and light staining, lightly browned, contemporary calf rebacked, later endpapers, a very good copy.
