Hi! An older gent friend of mine has an unusual book from 1776 named The Natural Biology of Fishes by Rev Samuel Ward. Printed in London. Cannot find any trace of this book, in the British Library or the US Library of Congress. Any suggestions on evaluating it's worth? Thank you. Hope this is appropriate inquiry. Book has been rebound, but appears in good conditon.

Here's another book from that era, which is a really interesting read:
