This is not a review of Speechly's 'Treatise', but a reappraisal of the 50 or so varieties of vine that Speechly described in his work, which was published in 1789 and subsequently in different editions.
From Thompson's article {e.g. No. 24 Smyrna grape. This kind was only cultivated in a pot and was put out of the collection soon after 1790.
No. 25 Brick grape. Was discarded long before 1801. It never had a place in the Welbeck collection except in a pot. etc.
An E form would have been appropriate at the time when Vegter was using the 1st ed. MBL, since the work is not listed in that. However no details of publication or anything else are given about it in the article, and since it is particularly well documented in 2nd ed. MBL, I would not have sent in an E form as it would add nothing to its information. A D-form is not required.}
