Book desription: London: J. Allen, 1826. A beautiful copy of this history of Lambeth, in a fine half- leather binding. Blue marbled paper-covered boards, spine & corners bound in sumptuous deep blue leather, with raised bands & gilt titles & decorations to the spine. 458 pages, plus 27 pages of maps & engravings at the rear, a few of which are colored. B/w engraved frontispiece, plus other full-page illustrations, including maps - plus some in the text; a few of these are colored. There is also a fold-out map of part of Lambeth & Westminster, dated 1825, showing "the proposed site of the intended new bridge". The exterior is in fine condition, the gilt being crisp & bright. Binding is very sound. The interior is clean; there is occasional toning or foxing, notably on pages 400 to 442, where a lesser quality paper must have been used, but most pages are clean & unmarked, both as to text & plates. Folding map is sound & clean; there is some old tape on reverse neatly reinforcing some of the folds. Small bookseller's label to front endpaper. Further details, & more photographs, if desired, from bookseller on request. . Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. Octavo.
