Small octavo (18cm), full contemporary calf with two small damaged areas at bottom of spine. Several maps misfolded but not so clumsily they cannot be left as is, short tear in half-title page. An early instructional geography proceeds as a series of questions and answers, the former of the leading sort ('Is Prussia a considerable European power?'). Good maps, a quaint text, and a scarce book. A very good copy. Price: $425.00
