Abstract
A beautiful hardbound edition with a gold-embossed cover. Notice that in this edition, unlike all others I have, James is not listed on the title page as Rev. Excellent presentation of the engravings, which may be less good only than those in my 1848 first edition. This is an early edition from the publisher of the first edition. Not listed in Lindseth. The advertisments at the back are separately paginated. T of C at the beginning; AI at the back. The extra copy has the pre-title-page lacking in the Clinton copy, which shows some repair work at that point; the spine of the Clinton copy is also chipped at the top. The extra copy has some foxing.
