It also gives one of the best figures of the Greenland Right Whale published prior to the present century and also one of the best early figures of the Cachelot" Allen. Unfortunately lacking the frontispiece and the map of Nova Zembla but otherwise a very good copy with some water stains and a tiny wormhole. Binding good though worn at the hinges. The definitive edition of an essential resource for any study of the whaling trade.l Allen 192 note; Sabin 106376; Tiele Bibl. 1241 note; STCN 3 copies. unknown
