Contemporary full leather darkened and scuffed; board edges worn with some peeling/chipping to surface leather; front board only tenuously attached with rear board pliable but holding; shallow wear to spine head with heel scuffed; spine with five raised bands and its maroon title label mostly intact and retaining reasonably bright gilt lettering. Book now presented in a trimmed clear Dura-Lar (polyester film) sheet forming a dj which aids in securing the boards and modestly enhances the book's shelf appearance. Interior toning/foxing with some soiling and stains. Missing preliminary blanks, i.e. ffep and perhaps a ffly; title leaf is immediately opposite front pastedown both of which are chipped at margins; title page is rubricated (red and black type); might be missing a rfly; large chipping with text loss to last leaf (pages 413-414); large loss to detached rfep; pencil note to chipped rear pastedown. Type error so that page 79 is actually numbered 76; also page numbers 271-272 are repeated but the text on the two leaves is different and sequiturous so an error by the typesetter but pagination sequence continues onward without adjustment. Seventeen b/w foldout maps are present (book's Contents leaf does not indicate how many maps were included) but appears to be complete with no stubs or other indicators of a missing plate (OCLC citations do not mention map count either). Leadoff double hemisphere world map does show California as an island; North America map has 15cm tear ascending from fold heel and, again, shows California as an island. Antiquarian ink signature "John Murray Robertson" at top of title page. Acquired from a modest collection of eighteenth and early nineteenth century legal and medical works from a Columbus, Mississippi estate which had familial roots to the Maryland Eastern Shore and the hamlet of Cambridge in Dorchester County with descent from Maryland U.S. Representative and ambassador William Vans Murray (1760-1803) and/or his nephew William Vans Murray Robertson (1797 or 1799-1836). Cursory online research turns up a Cambridge-born Reverend John Murray Robertson (1804-1878) who resided in Huntsville, Alabama circa 1850 but the ownership signature seems to be more 18th century in style and ink so the best guess is that John Murray Robertson is a 1700s progenitor to these extended family members.
