Description

First Edition. With fine black & white illustrations in text and a multi-folding map at the end of the book. 8vo, publisher’s original red cloth gilt lettered and decorated in black on both the spine and covers, now housed in a solander protective case of green cloth over green crushed morocco at the fore-edges. xvi, 398. 32 ads pp. A scarce find in original cloth, internally quite clean and fresh but for some spotting to the prelims. The text-block in good order, the binding a bit shaken but strong and secure, some light rubbing to the head and tail of the spine panel and the extremities, half-title clipped across the upper portion, withal, a pleasing survival and a book that remains unrestored.
