Description
First Edition, early state with partially black pages unnumbered in gatherings A, B, and C but numbered in E through H. With an etched illustration as frontispiece by H. Macbeth-Raeburn, and at the end, a map of Wessex. 8vo, in the original dark green ribbed cloth, lettered in gilt on spine, and with the floral gilt T/H decorative monogram on the upper cover, edges untrimmed, t.e.g. viii, 516, map. A handsome copy, the text a bit mellowed primarily at the prelims and the binding a bit shaken, the cloth is well preserved, dark and without fading though the rear cover appears a bit blemished in an area next to the spine, endleaves with some oof the usual browning to which the title is prone.
