With a large folding map of the author?s travels. 8vo, original publisher?s textured burgundy cloth, blindstamped decorative borders to both covers, the spine lettered in gilt.

A very desirable copy of this rare first edition, internally very clean, the binding bright and handsome with only light mellowing to the spine and gilt, a bit of expert strengthening to the tips.
