Marbled end pages. vi, 568, viii + 576 p. in 48 pts. : fronts., ill., plates. ; 34 cm. Clean, unmarked pages. Profusely illustrated with detailed black-and-white steel-plate engravings throughout. Frontispiece illustrations are protected with tissue guards. Following the success of the 2-volume series Picturesque Europe, Picturesque America employed a similar format, with text and editing assistance from Romantic poet and journalist William Cullen Bryant. This two-volume set and others of the same genre achieved great popularity in the nineteenth century. Their illustrations provided a tour of nineteenth century America, unspoilt and pastoral, its centers of commerce, ports, architecture and natural treasures. This is an oversized or heavy book that requires additional postage for international delivery outside of Canada and the US. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 1512140033
