About This Item
Paternoster Row, London: Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme, Brown, and Green, 1824. 2nd edition, with additions. leatherbound. Used - Very Good . Interesting as the book is written in 1824 so depicts the early days of British involvement in India, some thirty years before the Mutiny and the Raj days. The author also wrote books on the Spanish Peninsula and Italy & Egypt. Leatherbound, with the corners also protected by leather, the book is in excellent condition. Unmarked throughout, except for light inscriptions by previous owners on the inside front cover. Quite slight tanning and foxing on the outer edges but overall, excellent condition.
