Description

8vo., First Edition, with illustrated title in red and black, over 800 photographs (many full-page) and a full-page map in the text, and pictorial endpapers; original pictorial tan cloth gilt, upper board board elaborately blocked and lettered in gilt and brown, gilt back, brown top, very neatly recased, a remarkably bright, clean copy. A remarkably well-preserved copy of the best nineteenth-century guide to the city, extensive in scope and comprehensive in detail. A second edition was issued in the following year; the original edition is very scarce, especially in this condition.
