Printed in double-columns, 1 folding map, creases expertly guarded, rebound in quarter brown paper over light green boards, a fine copy thus internally tight and clean (ho11.1). ~ vide O'Reilly and Reitman 7568 . This work, based on the author's stay of several years in the South Seas, was immensely popular, and was reprinted several times following the first edition of 1837.
