    Description

    Early Edition, Folding Maps, Illustrated, Leather Binding

    Early edition of The Land and The Book; Or Biblical Instructions Drawn from the Manners and Customs, the Scenes and Scenery of The Holy Land in full morocco binding. 

    By William McClure Thomson, a nineteenth century American Protestant missionary who worked in Ottoman Syria. After spending twenty five years here, he published this work, describing his travels and using his observations as a means of illustrating and illuminating passages from the Bible. 

    This lovely work is densely illustrated throughout the text, and with twelve monochrome plates and a large colour folding map. Collated, complete.

    Condition

    In full morocco binding. Externally, smart. There is some rubbing to the extremities and to the spine. There are some light marks to the boards. The rear hinge is strained but firm. Internally, firmly bound. The pages are bright and clean with the occasional spot.

    Very Good
