This is an ex-library copy with significant exterior wear, sold as a scarce and still valuable reference. Octavo, 8 1/2" tall, [viii + iv] + 511 pages, three-quarter leather over marbled boards. This is a good plus copy overall, internal binding solid, text paper light to moderately yellowed, with light to moderate foxing throughout, but cover rubbed and shelf worn, leather back strip roughed and chipping. With diverse coverage including essays such as, "On the supply of water to the western part of the metropolis (London) by the Grand Junction Water-Works Company," "On Malaria" by J. Mac Culloch, which deals with the 'marsh miasma' caused by gases from the decomposition of 'vegetables in water,' and a "Description of the Kaleidophone, or Phonic Kaleidoscope; a new philosophical Toy, for the illustration of several Interesting and Amusing Acoustical and Optical Phenomena" by C. Wheatstone.

Anbieterinformationen

Avenue Victor Hugo Books specialize in first editions of the best in fiction, history, biography, poetry, drama, and essay, as well as the good items which happen to come our way in other subjects. Genre literature such as Science Fiction, Fantasy, Mystery, and Westerns will remain of special interest to us. We also carry many collectible magazines, including TIME, LIFE, National Geographic, and Playbill. Our catalogue features careful, considered assessments of all of our stock. We are not flippers selling books by the pound. Instead, we try to limit our stock to books in a condition we'd be proud to place on our personal bookshelves. Books are something to be cherished, so that's what we do. After years of running our bookstore on Newbury Street in Boston's Back Bay, our store has moved. We are now located in Lee, New Hampshire, less than 10 minutes from the University of New Hampshire. Our store is open from 10am to 6pm every Saturday.
