Decorative Description:
The covers are tooled in an all over gilt fanfare design with strapwork. The lines of the strapwork are gilt with narrow double lines. Spaces are tooled with pointille volutes, tulip stamps, rosettes, small tools, and dots. Onlaid at enclosed circles are black and tan leather, framed with double-walled circles. The spine is divided into six panels, each framed with gilt double lines, with gilt volute stamps at the corners and with a rhombus-shaped stamp in the center. The board edges and turn-ins are gilt with a covered rosette decorative roll.

Other Details:
The date is early for Alexander Cleeve, but the style and many of the tools are similar to bindings signed by Cleeve. (The binding could have simply been bound later than the publication date.)
