About this Item
Twenty-one chapters of adventure from witnessing the eruption of Mt. Etna to adventure on the high seas and travels through Africa. Previous owner's inscription dated 1852 on free front endpaper. Curious thin thread sewn through front flyleaf with a few stitches, probably to affix a label or note which has long since disappeared. Heavy foxing throughout. The last signature is beginning to loosen a bit. Overall a very nice copy. Blind stamped green cloth covered boards. Spine stamped in gold. 16mo. 4-5/8" x 5-11/16." 137 pp. Seller Inventory # 434
