Description: This is the illustrated 1915 *first edition* of Peeps At Many Lands — SOUTH AMERICA by Edith A Browne. This 119-year-old first edition, based on author’s own experience, provides a snapshot of Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Columbia and much of the rest of the continent on the cusp of World War I … Octavo hardback, around five inches by more than 7.5 tall, is bound in its publisher's original decorated blue cloth. Provenance: as shown [in photos, directly below]; free from further permanent inscription and markings to the text. First edition published by A&C Black, London, in 1915. Although interior condition is overall good, because this original letterpress book is old, it displays minor signs of use and age — occasional minor markings, the usual discolouration to old paper — consistent with a printed object of this vintage. All viii preliminary pages + 88 pp main text are complete √ and otherwise correct. Includes all 12 colour plates, as called for.
