2 volume set in 19th century bindings. Three quarters leather with marbled paper over boards. Front cover of the first volume is nearly detached. 572 pages. Engraved title page and portrait of Cervantes. Folding map present and in good condition opposite page xxiv. 6 additional plates. Volume 2 has been rebacked with the original leather laid down over the repair. Book opens very stiffly now. It clearly hasn't been read (or even much opened) since the repair was done. 623 pages. Engraved title page and 8 additional plages. Text blocks good and tight. Page edges good a square. Some foxing to the plates and a few of the pages. This is considered to be the first good translation of the work. Previous owner's name and address (California, 1917) on blank page added at the front when this binding was put on.

(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!
