Observations on architecture in England ..., 1807-1830.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/702200436

Volume of extensive manuscript annotations to a printed copy of James Dallaway's Observations on English architecture, military, ecclesiastical, and civil, compared with similar buildings on the continent (London: J. Taylor, 1806). The notes, in pen and brown ink, are in Dallaway's hand throughout, and appear to have been compiled for use in a revised and enlarged edition, published as: A series of discourses upon architecture in England from the Norman æra to the close of the reign of Queen Elizabeth (London: J. Williams, 1833). The annotations are written on about 200 additional blank leaves of paper, tipped in, as well as on the margins of printed pages. The notes include many references to and excerpts from other published works, some of which were printed after the 1806 publication of Dallaway's original work. Annotations appear to have been added piecemeal; a small portion are dated, from as early as 1807 until as late as 1830.
