The Army and Navy Gentleman's Companion

Book 1780 English United Kingdom

J. McArthur

Gelli lists the 1780-1781 London edition and a 1784 reissue, stressing the engraved frontispiece and eighteen plates.

Castle also records the 1780-1781 London McArthur witness.

Castle also records the 1784 London McArthur reissue printed for J. Murray.

Vigeant 1882 confirms the engraved apparatus of the 1780 issue and explicitly notes that the 1784 London edition is conformable to the original.
