Descripción

2 volumes. First Edition, A Rare Complete Set. Illustrated with 4 large folding maps, 5 full-page lithographed plates and 5 wood-engraved illustrations, complete and original as called for. Tall 8vo, handsomely bound in contemporary calf backed marbled boards with calf corner pieces, the spines with wide gilt tooled flat bands between blind stippled compartments, two compartments with gilt lettering. With fine engraved armorial bookplate in each volume of Captain E. N. Norcott, Royal Navy. xxiii, 434; viii, 420 pp. A handsome and very pleasing copy of this scarce and highly sought work, in an excellent state of preservation, the paper clean and still quite fresh with only a touch of occasional foxing, the maps are complete and in surprisingly good order with a few unobtrusive paper repairs at the versos, the spines have been restored with the original back-strips laid down.
