1802réf. 9900015583London: T. Cadell and W. Davies 1802. Hardcover. frontispiece folding maps. 8vo. Uniformly bound in full speckled calf. Besides the frontispiece vol. I contains a very nice folding map measuring about 17' square dated 1781 and showing the 'Eastern Part of the Roman Empire' designed by Thomas Kitchin. Vol. II contains an equally nice although smaller folding map also by Kitchin and dated 1781 showing 'Parts of Europe and Asia adjacent to Constantinople'. Vol. XII contains a comprehensive General Index to the work. This is a most attractive set internally each volume is in very good condition being tight clean and little soiled by age Internally with little age-toning or foxing and no markings or scribblings. However the bindings are in a less than desirable state. It may be taken that the binding of each volume has some defect whether split joints or tape remains.
