London, W. Simpkin & R. Marshall, 1824. First edition, first impression. Hardback. A very good copy. An interesting piece of proto-sf. "a satire of the cultural world of London couched as a fantastic voyage a hundred years [1823] hence to various societies whose distortions mirror his deprecatory sense of the English world. Before the tale ends, the Moon is described as a colony of Earth, and battles in space ensue." [SFE, Clute]. In Sargent's Utopian Literature in English (p19). A nice enough copy, corners a little rubbed, some foxing to the prelims. A quality binding. [12080, Hyraxia Books].
