Description

2 volumes. First edition of both volumes in publisher?s deluxe bindings. With 49 maps and illustrations, including two steel-engraved frontis-portraits and two etched views, all with tissue-guards. Also with fold out printed copy of manuscript and the dedication from Grant in holograph reproduction. Tall, thick 8vo, publisher?s very scarce deluxe bindings of original three-quarter morocco over boards, gilt lettered and finely decorated with gilt emblematic decorations including a General's stars in compartments of the spines separated by raised bands, each of the covers featuring large gilt medallions, endpapers and all edges marbled. 584; 647, index. An especially fine, bright and very pleasing set in the scarce publisher?s deluxe binding state. An unusually well preserved set, the text exceptionally clean and fresh, the bindings in excellent condition. The text-blocks appear near as pristine, the bindings very well preserved indeed, the books essentially as mint as can be expected, tight, and strong and without evidence of use.
