1817007975London: Henry Colburn 1817. First edition. Three Quarters Morocco. Marbled pastedown on boards. Near Fine. 4to. 30.5 by 27 cm. xviii 2 368 pp. 28 hand-colored aquatint plates of which one is a half-title page another is a double paged and folding panorama plate of The Battle of Waterloo; plus two folding maps. The plate count given in the book's plate description is 30 and this includes the maps. Tooley 336. Abbey Life 372. Cohn Cruikshank 580. Missing as typical View of Brussels but with "Flight of Bonaparte". Rouse was responsible for almost all of the plates with Cruikshank the artist for the large folding plate depicting the Battle of Waterloo and the frontis plate which contains portraits of the leading generals. Rouse though had a hand in the printing of these as well. Condition: Rubbing along the joints on the cover with a touch of rawness in the very upper reach of the front hinge but overall a highly attractive three quarter red morocco binding with raised bands gilt lettering and ruled and dotted decoration on the spine. Scattered light soiling within and the typical quotient of offsetting but mostly clean. The Cruikshank Waterloo plate has smudgy margins but a good amount of this can be removed with a simple eraser if one wishes to make the effort -- we did test this. The large folding map has fold tears with one irregularly bordered tear. The whole map we would note is present. Henry Colburn unknown
