This classic leather-bound horse racing book was printed in London in 1771. Entitled "An Historical List of Horse-Matches Plates and Prices, Run For In Great Britain and Ireland In the Year 1770," it is by B. Walker and was "Printed for the Author, in Long-Acre." The condition is very nice overall and considering its age, still has tight binding, some very minor water damage to first pages, and interior contents are in superior condition. Available by subscription, which included all royalty; Dukes, Earls and Lords. 308pp. First Edition.
