Notes:
Attributed by Mackenzie to John Clark (active 18th-early 19th century)."The imprints suggest that the book appeared in several parts; publication probably ceased before a general title was issued. A thirty-sixth plate, 'Town of Tain', was published by Smith, Elder & Co. 65, Cornhill in 1828, three years later than the others."--Abbey.Mackenzie, I. British prints, page 122Tooley, R.V.
