What Our Customers Say...

Description

Leather Binding, Very Scarce

A very scarce work.

Three parts bound in one, all from 'Chalmers' Journal of Useful Knowledge'. The journal was published from March to August 1827.

This work explores the state of the salmon fisheries of Britain as they were during the reign of George IV.

The anonymous author looks at the plans which have been proposed for the improvement of salmon fisheries, and analyses their likelihood of success, and how they will improve the system.

Twenty-four blank leaves have been bound to the rear.

Condition

In a quarter morocco binding with paper to the boards. Externally, generally smart, with light marks and rubbing to the boards and spine. Pencil to the front paste down. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are lightly age-toned and generally clean. Ink to the head of the first leaf.

Very Good
