Measuring 9½" x 6¼" (approx) and 2" thick this substantial volume is beautifully bound in gilt decorated cloth.

The boards and spine have the usual shelf-wear for a book of this age with some rubbing to the extremities, typical corner bumping and marking. There is some colour loss to the outer edges of the boards.

The binding is firm and the text block is tight with a couple of pages working loose - not unsurprising for a volume of this size and weight.  Similarly, the paper at the gutter of the front and rear inner hinges has split but the text block is firmly held by the chords and webbing.

There are 450 paginated pages and the pages are generally clean with the occasional spot and smudge and typical browning to the end papers.

There is a neat inscription dated 1909 on the front endpaper.

This book contains numerous full page engravings illustrating scenery, manners and customs in Judea, Egypt, Assyria and Rome.

"There can be no proper understanding of the history of any country without a knowledge of its geography...this book is designed to further a better acquaintance with the geography of the [Holy] land, and impart a more consecutive knowledge of the chronology of its history" - preface

This is a richly illustrated work which is packed with plates and has many colour maps, some which fold-out.

A super acquisition
