The cover has red cloth with beveled boards. No date of publication is given. The front blank page has an owner's name with a note about purchasing the book in 1888 from another owner. The text block ends have gilt. Scrambles Amongst the Alps, by Edward Whymper, has 164 pages, a frontispiece engraving in silver and white, 15 full page b/w engravings, and multiple in-text b/w engravings. The silver on the frontispiece has caused a beige coloring on the title page. Down the Rhine, by Lady Blanche Murphy, has 75 pages, 16 full page b/w engravings, and multiple in-text b/w engravings. This title is not of the book's cover. The spine strip's cloth has faded, has 1/8 in. size, brown stains, and its top edge is a little frayed. The front board has a decorative title block with dark green back ground color that is now a little mottled from shelf wear rubbing. The title's letters are in black and do not show well against the dark green back ground. Scans e-mailed upon request.
