Mobile: Mobile Register Print, 1878. Quarter Leather. Very Good binding. Octavo. xl, 338 pp., folding map. First edition. Backed in modern morocco with marbled paper over boards. An attractive copy in modern binding that reuses the original boards, though covered over in new marbled paper; bottom corner of the front board is rounded; original pastedowns are present preserving an inscription to Major General Quincy Adams Gillmore by the Mobile Board of Trade (?), dated 1880. Gillmore was a Union general in the Civil War. Contents are clean with very little foxing; Eugene A. Smith's "Geological Map of Alabama" is in remarkably sharp condition, no misfolding; very minor closed tear at the intersection of the folds. An uncommon book to find complete with the map. Accompanying this copy is Eugene A. Smith's "Geological Survey of Alabama. Report of Progress for 1876" (Montgomery, AL: W. W. Screws, 1876), with a printed "compliments of the author" label tipped in before the title page. Marcou & Marcou 602.
