A few engravings from The Beauties of Wiltshire by John Britton, an English antiquary who published The Architectural Antiquities of Great Britain. This was his first publication. It deals with the architecture and archaeological sites of Wiltshire, including Stonehenge, which is illustrated on one of the title pages and in a separate engraving.

These two volumes were recently added to our Adopt a Book Program, which funds rare book conservation work at the University of Missouri Libraries.
