An uncommon edition.

He wrote many works on US colonies in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
Densely illustrated with many in-text engravings, twenty six monochrome plates, and five maps, two of which are folding. Collated, complete.
Condition
In the original publisher's cloth binding. Externally, smart. There is some bumping to the head and tail of the spine and to the extremities. The spine is faded and discoloured. There are some light marks to the boards. The hinges are starting but firm. Internally, firmly bound. The pages are bright and clean with the occasional spot.
Very Good
