A General History of the Pirates, Vol II

About this book

Back of title page: "This edition of Johnson's General History of the Pirates has been set by hand at the Cayme Press; it is strictly limited to 500 copies, 50 being for presentation & review." I own this and it's 1925 volume I predecessor; both from the shelves of the Warner Brothers research library; complete with checkout cards and library tag. It measures roughly 9x11 inches. A reprint of the original third edition (1725), but omits the original preface and introduction. Bound in black cloth with gothic lettering in gilt on the binding edge, and a piece of eight on the cover in gilt.
