About This Item
Providence, RI: Narragansett Historical Publishing Company, 1884. First Edition. Cloth. Good +. Rare first edition, 8vo, cxxxvi, 496 pages, with 2 interleaved plates. Brown cloth binding with beveled boards and gold stamping on the spine and front cover. Overall good condition: the textblock spine is split in one place, and one signature and a few pages are loose or detached at the split. The paper is a bit yellowed, but supple. The boards and spine of the cover case are intact and attractive (except for library marking on the spine), but the hinge is broken at the back of the textblock, and weak at the front. A good candidate for repair using the existing case cover, a new mull, new end-papers, and a bit of glue. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Ex-Library.
