678, 40pp (the latter section being period advertisements). Lightly illustrated. Purple cloth covered boards with elaborate gilt decorations and lettering (edge worn, faded, rubbed ad rounded on corners and spine joints, backstrip loosening from page block). Internally pages are neat, clean, bright and tight, barring front endpapers which have a some scuffing and a newspaper article regarding the bigamous marriage of the then Duke of Beaufort (who married two sisters, nieces of the Duke of Wellington). Good reference copy but no longer pretty.
