Book Description

A c1930s illustrated edition, rebound in a charming amateur designer binding. Rebound in full crushed morocco, with gilt titles horizontally to the spine, gilt geometric sailing boat to front board, and waves carrying across the spine to the rear board. Some minor occasional rubbing and scratches to the boards; the spine is discoloured and faded. Top edge gilt. The binding remains tight. The pages are occasionally a touch age-toned and discoloured. Illustrated with six plates, two in colour. A delightful amateur designer binding of this popular 19th century Robinsonade.
