Item description from seller

~Original dark green cloth, gilt lettering to front board, blindstamped frames and decor to boards. Spine worn, with chipping to cloth over hinges and loss to base and top of spine. Front endpapers cracked over inner hinge, which is slightly slack. Pencil inscription to inside front board, giving likely publication date (backed up by Copac; volume is otherwise undated) and bibliographic details. Pencil owner's signatures. Minor foxing. Large 4to (28 x 34cm). Thirty leaves (blank on verso), with large engraving of Biblical prospects above two columns of explanatory text. All engravings sensitively and attractively hand-coloured, as originally sold (see publisher's prices at the base of each page). Most engravings signed 'Whimper', almost certainly Josiah Wood Whimper (or Whymper; 1813-1903), one of Victorian London's most successful illustrators; he produced several sets of fine engravings for the SPCK. ~Robust packaging. All UK orders trackable, others on request. Used books are exempt from USA tariffs. Size: 30 leaves.…
