About This Item
London: George Bell & Sons, 1910. "Cheap Re-issue". Octavo, half bound in brown cloth and smooth calf, attractively designed art nouveau spine, top page edge gilt, pp. xii, 151; numerous illustrations. Despite the publisher's designation of this as a "cheap re-issue" this is a nicely produced book, and is well printed on good paper. Many pages un-opened, some darkening to edges of the free endpapers, light scuffs to calf, else a lovely book in a very attractive period binding..
