1859, First Edition. New York ; London ; Montreal : H. Bailliere ; B. Dawson. Poor copy in cloth-covered boards, with front board detached and lacking cloth cover. Title gilt-blocked to spine. Remaining covers are somewhat dust-dulled and heavily rubbed along the edges, particularly at the joints and endbands. Internally much better, with faint dust-dulling only, chiefly marginal. The text block is loosening in some places from the bottom, but holding throughout. Remains a very serviceable copy overall. Item #458673
