London: Longmans, Brown, Green, and Longmans, 1856. First Edition, First printing. Hard Cover. Octavo, xxxviii, 648, 24 pages of ads. 2 maps, four color plates, 7 illustrations in text. Appendix IV omitted as usual. Bound in modern three-quater dark brown calf, raised bands, marbled boards, new endpapers, all in fine, like new condition. Interior is very clean, virtually free of any foxing. A beautiful copy with two imperfections: 1) Diagonal tear and wrinkling at bottom of page xxvii. 2) An ink owner inscription, dated 1859, on the reverse of the first colored plate has bled through in places. While noticable, it has a minimal effect on the overall scene.
