Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Extracts From the Registers of the Stationers Company
The present selection excludes only early dissertations upon medical and other sciences, old divinity, and such chronicles, and other works, as are well known in the various extant editions. All that relates to popular poetry and prose, plays, tracts, voyages, travels, and lighter literature, has been carefully preserved. In some instances, the entries appear to have been made by the stationer in anticipation of the printing of a work, and in others just anterior to its publication; but this is a point the Editor reserves for future discussion.
