About This Item
London: Swan Sonnenschein, Le Bas & Lowrey. Good. 1886. Flexible cloth. 392 p. 13.5 cm. Sound and square binding in red cloth-covered, flexible boards with gilt edges. Rubbed through along the edges and at the corners. Name and address on the front and rear free endpapers. Small crack on rear pastedwon endpaper. Inside pages are clean and unmarked, with a little tanning to the edges. A small handbook to the flowers and plants of the European Alps. There are no illustrations, but a pocket between the front board and front pastedown endpaper possibly held a fold open illustration at one time, although I can find no reference to one. Translated by Alfred W. Bennett. .
