Item description from seller

An exploration into London's history until the year 1700, illustrated with eighteen plates. Written by James Peller Malcolm (1767-1815), a topographer and engraver whose works include 'Excursions in the Counties of Kent, Gloucester, Hereford, Monmouth and Somersetshire in 1802, 1803 and 1805', 'Twenty Views within Twelve Miles of London' and 'First Impressions, or Sketches from Art and Nature, Animate and Inanimate'.Illustrated with seventeen engravings, including eleven in colour. Lacking one plate. Collated.A brilliant topographical, historical and social insight into London between Roman conquest and the start of the eighteenth century. In a half straight grain morocco binding. Externally generally smart, with chipping to the tail of the spine and the rear joint of the spine resulting in loss to the leather. Extremities are also a little bumped. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean with just the odd spot. Very Good.
