Item description from seller

Hardcover. Original, full brown leather. Front cover detached but present. Rear cover held on by cords only. Spine has raised cords and gold rules, but is dry and a bit flaky. Text block square and currently intact, but a block with the first 32 pages has slipped the bottom two cords and needs to handled carefully to prevent it coming further apart. First page present is the title page. This is the Second edition of Martin's work. 362 pages. Printed on good paper, which is white and largely free of fading and foxing. There are 26 fine folding, engraved, plates. All numbered and all present and in good condition. The first edition of Martin's work was published in 1734. This edition from 1738 is expanded, and with 10 additional plates. The 4 sections of the book are: Somatology; Cosmology; Aerology; Geology. Measures 5.25 x 8 inches. Bookplate (from the 1900's) on the inside front cover with the name Lewis S. Reid. Please email with questions or to request photos.

Store description

We're at 805 Caroline Street, in the heart of Fredericksburg's historic district. Open Monday to Saturday 10-6; and Sunday 12-5. In warmer months we stay open until 9 most nights, but you might want to call ahead. (540) 373-6148 Shipping rates are for Media Mail, in a padded envelope - WE DO NOT ADD TRACKING UNLESS THE CUSTOMER REQUESTS IT AND PAYS FOR IT - we have been selling books online for more than 20 years & find that the USPO delivers 99.99% of packages quickly and safely, without any need for a tracking number. We trust them & we hope you will too. If you need tracking, please consider PRIORITY SHIPPING. We ship orders valued at more than $50 in a box, at no additional charge. Priority mailing is for a Flat-Rate envelope, with tracking included. If the book does not fit into a flat rate envelope, we will likely need to request extra shipping costs from you, in order to put it in a box. We only charge the actual amount of shipping, so we hope you'll understand that it's just a matter of getting the book to you without taking a loss on it -- shipping is a service we happily offer without a 'handling' charge.... but we can't afford to charge you less than the cost of the stamps!
