Brown, Robert (1842-1895).
THE COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD. Being a Popular Description of the Various Continents, Islands, Rivers, Seas, and Peoples of the Globe. IN ORIGINAL PARTS.
Issued (by subscription). Sixty original parts. Complete. Magazine-format. Large 8vo. 195 x 270 mm. Numerous woodcut illustrations. This set is generally in wonderful condition. A great monument to the variety of lands in the British Victorian Empire. Books in parts are works which were published piecemeal (mainly in the 19th century) over a period of months or years. Each unit usually having a separate magazine-like cover. This method of publishing benefited the publisher as it was thought that the price of a weekly or monthly part at 6 pence or a quarter was affordable to a wider readership than the price of pound sterling or $ 5.00 for a bound volume. They also qualified for mailing at a cheaper rate. Since they were meant to be bound by the purchaser, very few have survived into our present era. This set is extremely scarce in such well preserved parts format. This edition apparently not in the Arents Collection at the New York Public Library. SCARCE. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! (1957). PARTS 4
