'Gisborne's Duties of Men', volumes 1-3, 1797

'Works of the Reverend R. Hall', volumes 1-6, 1832

and

Holland, Lady: 'A Memoir of the Reverend Sydney Smith', 4th edition, volumes 1-2, published by Longman et al, London 1855.

Most of these remaining titles are slightly scuffed, faded and worn, but broadly in fair condition. The items in worst condition are the 'The Works of Crebilion' and 'Gisborne's Duties of Men' which are 18th century and the leather is rather cracked and tired.
