About This Item
London: Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, no date [c. 1894]. No edition stated, but presumed first edition (hardback). 12mo (17cm by 13cm), 118pp, 8pp adverts. Frontispiece illustration. Original decorated grey cloth, gilt titling to the spine. Front inner hinge strained (and repaired), gift inscription (dated 1894), else this copy is in very good condition. According to COPAC, this book was first published in 1894, and all copies on COPAC are undated. Together with the 1894 date of the inscription, this strongly suggests that this copy is likely to be a first edition.
