183624178New Haven CT: Durrie and Peck and J. W. Barber. 1836. Second Edition. Leather. Good in No Dust Jacket dust jacket. Sadly part of the colored map is missing but everything else is present and the binding is tight. This copy has been handsomely bound in full leather. The spine is intact but with some wear to the surface and fading of the titles. The book has marbled endpapers and a marbled fore-edge. The hinges are sound front and back and I see no markings or inscriptions. The main condition problem is widespread foxing which is probably true of all copies. Still a lovely collectible for the Connecticutian. . Durrie and Peck and J. W. Barber hardcover
