[PU: Lausanne [Paris], s.n.], 3 vol. in-12, V-[3]-408, [2]-356 et [2]-456 pp., avec un grand plan dépliant de la ville "in initio", table, veau porphyre, dos à nerfs orné, triple filet doré en encadrement, tranches dorées (relriure de l'époque). Petite déchirure au plan. Edition originale, la seule à avoir l'intitulé court et à comporter trois volumes (la seconde édition, de la même année, a un titre plus développé, et la troisième, de 1774, présente quatre volumes). L'ouvrage, une excellente description de l'Angleterre en fait, est assez inhabituel dans la production de l'érudit troyen janséniste Pierre-Jean Grosley (1718-1785), mais il avait effectué en 1765 un voyage "savant" dans la capitale britannique, où il avait été convié par la Royal society. Bon exemplaire.<
