About This Item
Richard Bentley, 1839. Small library plate to the paste down of each volume and stamp to the title page and page 1 of each volume. Three plates and the map are all present. The map has been neatly detached and is without tears.The spines have been professionally rebacked on each volume and the set would be in very good condition save for a consistent level of foxing throughout both volumes.
