1837033014London: Printed by Richard Tayor for the Author 1837 A good copy of the 1st edition in the original cloth binding with 2 folding maps at the rear. Robert Dunn titles himself as an 'animal-preserver' - which sadly does not mean that he was a conservationist. The book is a full account of his travels and the various species that he encountered and then shot and presumably stuffed when he was back home. The binding is complete and sound with pulling to spine ends bumped corners and some staining to the front board. There are the remains of a paper title label to the spine. Internally the original endpapers are present with 2 old signatures at the fep which has some light marking at the bottom. Contents with half title; frontispiece; title page; dedication; introduction; notice to subscribers announcing the addition of maps for those who wanted them; text 128pp; and folding maps of Orkney and Shetland. Contents are generally clean with light toning particularly to page edges and with the odd spot or mark. Pages 45-48 are badly opened with some loss to the side margin. The maps have some creasing at the side edges. Printed by Richard Tayor for the Author hardcover
