The Sword-Man's Vade-Mecum

Treatise 1694 English United Kingdom

Sir William Hope

H-block staging entry validated for model fit. Imported from staging batch duell-thimm-h, source entry 1030.

Gelli gives a fuller descriptive notice of the 1691 Edinburgh Vade Mecum and ties the later London and Edinburgh states into the same William Hope family.

Castle records Hope's Vade-Mecum both in its 1691 Edinburgh state and in a 1694 London second-edition state.

Vigeant 1882 preserves the 1694 London Vade Mecum with its specific sale addresses, the practical observations borrowed from different masters, and the curious letter from the Scottish master William Machrie.
