A History of British Reptiles.
London: John Van Voorst, 1839. Full calf, 8 1/2 inches tall. Full early Victorian calf with gilt raised bands, twin labels and dense gilt tooling to the panels. The spine is faded to gold, overall a delightful binding on a work of Natural History which is rather more whimsical than scientific. Embellished with more than 40 woodcuts.
