Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Later printing, copyright 1867. Two volumes in one, each with its own title page. Thick octavo. Illustrated with 22 engraved plates. Quarter tan morocco brown cloth boards, morocco trimmed with gilt, illustration and title stamped in gilt on the front board with the same design repeated in blind on the rear board, spine decoratively stamped in gilt making five compartments: three with gilt illustration, one with the title in gilt, and one with the author's name in gilt, publisher and location in gilt at the foot of the spine, marbled endpapers, and marbled page edges. Boards show some wear, some slight wrinkling to the spine, and wear at the foot of the spine, a publisher's error has resulted in Plate XV being located at page 514 instead of page 500 as listed in the "Index To Illustrations" and is thus serving as the frontispiece to Volume Two (not the frontispiece to Section XXXI as listed), plates have foxing and their facing pages have offsetting despite the tissue guards, overall a very good and sound copy with the gilt on the spine remaining quite bright.
