Volume One has a neatly printed name on the FFEP. Volume Two has a contemporary (1864) signature on its FFEP and a gift notation on the front paste-down. Both volumes are rubbed along the margins and show some fading; gilt on spines is still bright; while the text is bright and very readable, the pages are a bit stiff to turn. Spotting is confined to the endpapers. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. First Edition.. Decorative Cloth. Very Good/No Jacket. Illus. by Hammatt Billings.
