Sobre este artículo
London: H. Baillière, 1848. Hardcover. Near Fine. Third edition of the text. Two volumes, beautifully bound in full matching apple green pebble-grained morocco of the period, extravagantly gilt, all edges gilt, cloth doublures. 8 3/4 x 5 1/2 inches (22 x 134 cm); xviii, 677, [1] pp., with 51 plates, 46 of them hand-colored, and illustrations in text; the companion map volume in larger format, with 2 ff. folding text, six linen-backed folding hand-colored maps. Light wear, a bright copy overall; one map with splitting to fold. A lovely copy of this ethnographic work. The companion volume of maps states "second edition, 1854" on the maps; this was separately published, and is quite uncommon in any of its editions.
