Hi everybody. My turn. I've followed and bookmarked numerous helpful sections, but I haven't really been able to find anything about this one. I have an OLD Gulliver's travels book. No date, but it has advance edition on the spine. Inside, it has numerous information about the life of the author.
What is strange though. On the inside page it says Travels into several REMOTE NATIONS OF THE WORLD in four parts by Lemuel Gulliver first a surgeon and then a captain of several ships
I can't find anything about the printing company of Donohue, Henneberry & Co. The book is super with lovely embossing on the cover.
Any suggestions as to whether this is a find or just a neat old book?
I did find one reference to a similar ( different titled book) On Ebay, but I hate to just go by that. He said it's a TRUE first edition from the 1800's.
