    Description

    Leather Binding

    Written by Rev. William Bingley, a naturalist and writer. This was his most popular work, first published in 1802 and running many editions.

    Complete in three volumes. 

    The fourth edition of this work, with an additional one hundred and forty species. 

    Volume I covers quadrupeds; volume II covers birds, cetaceous animals and amphibious animals, and volume III covers fishes, insects and worms.

    Condition

    In a full diced calf binding. Externally a trifle worn; spines are rather rubbed, with wear to the extremities and slight rubbing to the boards. Internally generally firmly bound; slight straining to the front hinge of volume I. Pages have the odd spot, and a mark between pages 61 and 123 of the first volume not affecting the text.

    Good
