About This Item
(London: Hurst and Blackett: no date) Eighth Edition. Author's Preface [to the first edition] subscribed New-Year's Day, 1867, and his 'Note to the New [Revised] Edition' is subscribed April, 1869. Hurst and Blackett's Standard Library Series. Decorated cloth (that is, hard covers) pp. xii, 448 and 4 publisher's advertisements. Frontispiece. More than just a travel book, and perhaps breaks new ground in some respects, not least in giving to the wider public insight into the Mormons, Shakers, Bible Communists and other groups which were able to flourish in the 'New America'. First Edition. An ownership signature at head of recto of frontispiece. Extremities of boards, including the external hinges, rubbed and somewhat worn; a good copy and textually generally very good.
