About This Item
Philadelphia: John Grigg, 1828. First edition. A fascinating account of Persia, illustrated with twelve delicately hand-colored angraved plates. Small 8vo. Bound in recent cloth. Lower corner of title-page torn off, not affecting text. Mild discoloration to paper (as always with this book). Otherwise very good.
