priced to reflect condition
NOTE: I can find one other copy of this particular edition for sale - that one is in vg condition and complete & priced at £500

Condition: Fair
One print is missing - View of Christmas harbour
The leather cover boards are very worn & detached.
First few pages are loose.
However, the overall contents appear complete and in good to very good condition - clear text and prints with reasonable degree of browning in places for a book printed 224 years ago!
