Bishop, Coleman E. Pictures From English History By the Great Historical Artists
New York, New York Phillips & Hunt 1883 First American Edition Illustrated Hardbound Near Fine Illustrated Hardbound Small Octavo
Handsome volume of essays replete with maps. Small octavo. Unmarked. Sound hinges. Unsoiled. No rips. Only pencil point checks, and none in the text, and few at that. The boards are stamped with English motifs such as rampant lions, and the gilt lettering on the spine and the front cover is intact and very bright, including the image of King John. The maps are in color, and the illustrations are steel engravings, I believe. A lovely copy.
