Description: Blackburn,Toulmin,1889, first edition, pp.xiv,198,142, folding frontis. and other illustrations. Original cloth,a little rubbed and bumped on the spine ends, spine and part of back cover faded. A binding fault means the first few pages are slightly proud, but this is still a good, sound copy. The second part consists of reminiscences of the old Darwen families dictated to the author by Jeremy Hunt. Signature and bookplate of Richard Heape, the historian of Rochdale, who has added extensive family pedigree notes to the front paste-down.
