Sobre este artículo
London : Longmans, Green, & Co. Ltd., 1898. First English Edition [1 of 2,000 copies] (Cohen A1.1.a) (Woods A1a). Hardcover. Very Good. 8vo (352 pages, 6 maps, illustrations, tissue-guarded frontis portrait. With 32-page rear catalogue dated 12/97). This could have been an exceptionally good copy of the First State of the First English edition, with the rear publisher’s catalogue dated 12/97 and the Eratta slip present. The cloth is still bright but the original owner elected to write his name: “E.D. Miller” in fountain pen across the front cover. He also prominently scrawled his name, again, with his address in ink on the verso of the frontis photo, which retains its tissue guard. There is a faint dent to the edge of the front cover. The binding is strong, though the front hinge has some separation and there is chipping to the black endpapers. The contents are otherwise fine, save for very faint scattered foxing. Attractive but flawed, and priced accordingly.
