4to, engraved portrait frontispiece of Pardoe, additional engraved title, engraved map and 85 plates, contemporary maroon half morocco gilt, marbled edges and sides, lightly rubbed, light foxing to verso of front free endpaper and first blank, tiny ink stain to frontispiece, light toning to extreme edges of plates, generally a very good clean copy.
