Provenance: An older small label on the front pastedown: M. Daupeley, propriétaire, Nogent. Neat ownership signature of Lanoir to verso of front free endpaper.
Condition: Some rubbing to extremities and slight wear to the spine, headcap is missing, outer hinges somewhat fragile with age. Front flyleaf with an open tear in the gutter area. Text with block occasional mainly marginal spotting and browning. Paper repair in margin of plate 25 and the 'Map of France'. Despite the described blemishes, still a good copy.
