Half leather, cloth boards. Condizione: Very Good. FIRST EDITIONS: two volumes bound as one. Large 12mos, [viii], 168; pp. v, [3], 144. Handsomely bound by Townsend (signed in gilt on the front turn-in) in half pebble grained red morocco, spine lettered and decorated in gilt with an art deco design, red cloth boards. Top edge gi…lt. Red marbled endpapers with gilt highlights. Corners bruised and worn, some rubbing. Ex libris of P. W. Pegge of Middle Temple and Lincoln's Inn, featuring the legend: "Quod Verum Tutum," and with later PO pencil notes to ex libris, verso of ffep and first blank, browned and foxed in parts, some creasing, one pencil score (relating to Sam Pegge see below), else, clean, esp. second series. Very good. Unusual: JiscLHD locates three libraries holding both volumes (Bodleian, Cadbury Research Library & York Minster), plus another three holding the first volume only (Leeds Libraries, UoL & UoYork). A pleasing antiquarian-related association copy of John Thomas' two volumes (bound as one) of Walks in the Neighbourhood of Sheffield, Yorkshire (1831 & 1844) from the collection of Percy William Pegge, a descendant of Samuel Pegge, "the ingenious and exemplary rector of Whittington [. and author of.] an historical account of Beauchief Abbey" cited in the 'BeauchiefNortonHemsworth' walk; and aptly appearing in an attractive signed binding by Townsend of Sheffield. Thomas' first volume comprises ten walks and the second, published 13 years later, features thirteen, including walks around Darnall, the Manor, Birley Vale, Beauchief and Wharncliffe; they were reproduced from "loose sketches" first published in the weekly newspaper, the Sheffield Independent. In the first volume, Thomas had hoped to show how, within the range of a summer morning walk, it was possible to enjoy "the ever fresh variety of nature little winding rivers, fair but abruptly rising hills, long valleys which peep into each other, copses and woods of all ages decaying or rejoicing in the strength and abundance of their sap these and a thousand other beauties, including the remains of the works of the long-gone inhabitants of the district". Hailing from a family of antiquaries, Stoney Stanton-born Percy William Pegge was a barrister (like Samuel Pegge, the younger) and collector (like both Samuel Pegges). He compiled a collection of manuscripts belonging to or related to the Pegge family, including his own writing (1764-1927), now held by UCLA Special Collections. Papers relating to his forebear Samuel Pegge (1704-1796) are an important part of the collection: he was a well-published antiquary and clergyman, who was vicar of Godmersham, Kent (1731), before becoming rector of Whittington, Staffordshire in 1751, the same year he was elected fellow of the Society of Antiquaries.
