About This Item
London, Paris, New York, Melbourne: Cassell & Company. Hardcover. Good. 5 x 7 1/2. Illustrated including a frontispiece. These are exceptional illustrations! The front and rear inside paper hinges have torn paper but are not loose. Minimal foxing on text pages but the page edges are dark. Two swifts flying on the front board with the words bordered in gilt. The top of the spine has been nibbled away with a loss of 1/4 x 1/2 inch of cloth. I still rate this book overall as good. Not dated but late 1800's
