The cover is interesting as it lists local publications on it s reverse, including a few remaining copies of Robert Baugh s large 9 sheet map of Shropshire at the price of two guineas, which is around £200 in today s money. The undersize covers and page edges are worn with corner curling, some small edge tears and a couple of small diamond shaped holes cut out in plain page margins, Plymouth Athenaeum rubber date stamp to inside rear cover also dated 1812.
