A smart first edition of this illustrated account of the author's own holiday travelling along the Rivers Seine and Loire in France. First edition. Illustrated with an illustrated title and numerous in-text figures. A delightful account of the author's own experiences rowing, walking, and travelling by wagon during a trip to France. With commentaries on his journey along the Rivers Seine and Loire, as well as their tributaries, alongside four or five Englishmen during the year 1873. Written by James Lynam Molloy, an Irish composer, poet, and author. Illustrated by Edward Linley Sambourne, an English cartoonist and illustrator most famous as a draughtsman at Punch for more than forty years and rising to the position of "First Cartoonist" in his final decade. In the original full cloth binding. Externally, sound with light rubbing and bumping to the extremities. Small splits to the rear joint with the odd small mark to the boards. Small splits in the cloth to the head and tail of the spine. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright with light scattered spotting. Further spotting to the first and last few pages. Some of the text block remains unopened with light age toning to the extremities. A contemporary ink inscription to the half-title with the bookseller's label to the front pastedown. Good.…
