Best known as Fanny Hill or Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure,
this work has been reprinted numerious times since the first volume
was published in c. 1748, partially based on the earliest found
advertisement in the General Advertiser, Nov. 21, 1748. The second
volume appears to have been first published in c. 1749, again
partially based on the earliest found advertisement in the General
Advertiser, Feb. 14-16, 1749. The two volumes were published as
Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure, London: Printed for G. Fenton.
William Dugdale published an edition in 1832, two volumes, with an
engraved title-page plus 12 colored engravings in-text and 13 large
engravings; and again c.1850, two volumes in one, with 20 colored
lithographs.
