London: Seeley, Jackson, and Halliday, 1873. First Edition. Octavo. Item #029964

86 pages, (2) pp. ads, illustrated by fourteen autotype views of Egypt and Palestine after David Roberts. The autotype process allowed the publisher to reproduce images without the cost of having more expensive systems. His masterful works on the Holy Land were first produced in the 1840's. Issued in a small print run these small but important editions have become relatively scarce since the mid-20th century. A handsome copy bound in brown morocco lettered and decorated in blind and gilt, spine stamped in gilt, all edges gilt, light scattered foxing to title page, internally clean with tissue guards present. Very nice.
