Green rebound hardcover with gilt spine title (NOT ex-library). This book was rebound by the family who owned it and there is a pasted typed genealogy description about the original owner who was born in 1827 and who passed away in 1897. His original signature with an 1834 date are written on the front endpaper. Heavy foxing to front endpapers to preface and some to rear endpapers otherwise nice pages with just mild foxing. One page has been carefully repaired and there is a loss of text to the one corner. Nice solid binding with clean pages. 8-3/4 x 5-1/2 with 593 numbered pages. Scarce!
