Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Geographical Dictionary of England and Wales: Containing, the Names, in Alphabetical Order, of All the Counties, With Their Several Subdivisions Into Hundreds, Lathes, Rapes, Wapentakes, Wards, or Divisions County to each of its able labourers! In a table like this, containing such a mass of figures, it was next to impossible to avoid, either in author or printer, something In the way of error, and one, and [believe only one, hm been c'am mittsd here; and that Is, in the statement of the number of acres of land to each puson and to each house in the county of Middlesex. As I firmly believe, that a fiftieth part as much really useful information was never before given in so small a compass; sol am quite iure, that a hundredth part as much was never before published at a similar price. This Table, the whole of which the reader sees at taro openings of the book, has cost me, first and last, months of labour.
