Notes: A rare and influential history of England chronicling from the arrival of Julius Caesar to the end of the Saxon heptarchy. The English art historian, Sir Roy Strong, called Joseph Strutt, engraver, artist, antiquary, and writer the earliest and "most important single figure in the investigation of the costume of the past", making him "an influential but totally neglected figure in the history of art in Britain" [Strong, 50]. "Strutt, Joseph 1749-1802, author, artist, antiquary, and engraver. In 1771 he became a student in the reading-room of the British Museum, whence he drew the materials for most of his antiquarian works. His first book, 'The Regal and Ecclesiastical Antiquities of England,' appeared in 1773. For it he drew and engraved from ancient manuscripts representations of kings, costumes, armour, seals, and other objects of interest, this being the first work of the kind published in England. He spent the greater part of his life in similar labours, his art becoming little more than a handmaid to his antiquarian and literary researches. Between 1774 and 1776 he published the three volumes of his 'Manners, Customs, Arms, Habits, &c., of the People of England,' and in 1777-8 the two volumes of his 'Chronicle of England,' both large quarto works, profusely illustrated, and involving a vast amount of research. .Although the amount of Strutt's work as an engraver is small, apart from that appearing in his books, it is of exceptional merit and is still highly esteemed. In the study of those branches of archaeology which he followed he was a pioneer, and all later work on the same lines has been built on the foundations he laid." [DNB].

Hardcover. 4to., (11 2/8 x 9 inches). Frontispiece engraved in sepia, and 39 engraved plates, also in sepia (some spotting, and one or two marginal tears). Contemporary half tan calf, gilt, marbled paper boards (a bit worn) Second edition, first published in 1801. With accounts of hunting and hawking, archery, stone throwing, all sorts of ball games including tennis and golf, jousts and tournaments, to miracle plays, minstrels, Morris dancing, animal bating, and even sedentary and solitary games. This is an important history of recreational activities and traditional celebrations in the British Isles. "Strutt may justifiably be regarded as the first serious historian of dress in England, and his pioneering works of scholarship were heavily drawn upon by nineteenth-century costume historians. Unlike many of his contemporaries, who doubted the reliability of artistic sources as historical evidence, he employed a comparative analysis of the manuscripts, showing that they were reliable indicators of changes not just in matters of dress but also of the 'manners and customs' of the time. He was one of the first to realize the potential value of visual material as a historical source rather than as simply serving an illustrative purpose. He showed an early appreciation of the intrinsic merit of medieval art and was unusual in producing near-facsimile engraved reproductions of the originals. Antiquaries such as Richard Gough were critical of his antiquarian scholarship but appreciated the quality of his engravings. In his own lifetime Manners and Customs was probably the most successful of his antiquarian works (there were two subsequent editions, in 1779 and 1793) but Sports and Customs has enjoyed greater longevity and has been frequently reprinted, one edition appearing in 1973" (Jennifer Harris for DNB).Johnston, Chronicles of Golf, p. 346; D&J S40630.…
