Reprint (first published 1878). vi, 242pp, engraved frontispiece, illustrated with engravings and line drawing in text. Bound in full brown calf’s leather with gilt decorations, black spine label with gilt titles, five raised bands. All edges marbled and marbled endpapers. 12mo. Boards very slightly rubbed at corners, moderately rubbed at spine tips, small chip on rear panel, a little patina. Presentation inscription on first true leaf, dated 1889; a hint of spotting on prelims, else internally neat, clean, bright and tight. An attractive, evocative volume. A fantastically introduction to the wonders of the natural world from how sunbeams benefit the world and how a drop of water travels to the life cycle of the primrose and the history of a piece of coal.
