Overall not a bad copy of what is a scarce title, across all three editions. vii,260, pages, 12 page George Robertson Catalogue, dated January 1874, bound in at rear. Small marginal tear without loss to text on one of these leaves. Ownership inscription of Miles N Carter, Nov 16th 1876 on front end paper.
