Very good copy, with some foxing, esp. to title page, creasing to the endpaper bearing the inscription, and just a touch of spotting to blue cloth boards, ( unobtrusive, and not affecting the embossed decoration ). Inscribed by renowned mountaineer Francis Fox Tuckett, whose daughter Elizabeth was the illustrator. Title page dated 1873. Illustrated title page and " Dramatis Personae page, full page map, followed by 38 single sided pages of illustrations and text captions. The inscription is dated 1884, and signed F.F. Tuckett. ( to Mrs Molson in Montreal ). There is also a prev. owner note on the same endpaper, recording the acquisition of this copy at a private auction in Victoria, BC. A wonderful association copy..
