Description
4 volumes. First Edition. Profusely illustrated throughout with frontispieces, photographic plates and folding maps and charts and including a folding map stored in the pocket at the end of Vol. IV. 8vo, publisher’s original light blue cloth lettered in gilt on the spine, all volumes housed in their original printed dustjackets. [xiv], 406; xiv, 306; xii, [307]-[596]; x, [597]-798 + maps and illustrations pp. A very fine copy of each volume, essentially as pristine, the spine panels of the dustjackets just a tad mellowed.
