iv, 454pp, xviii, complete with hand-coloured, fold out map (torn but without loss). Listed as fair as the front board is detached and the front free endpaper partially so, but suitable as reading copy or for rebinding. In full contemporary calf's leather plain binding (boards worn, faded, rubbed but still strong). Internally neat, clean and tidy. Text block tight. Popular early 19th century children's instructional work, describing a tour through England, Scotland and Ireland on a county by county basis, it remained in print until 1840.
