How it works

Register

320 pages, 11 plates, pictorial green cloth gilt over bevelled boards, all edges gilt, a very good copy.

A popular edition with the abridged text of The Life & Explorations of Dr. Livingstone which was issued in a variety of elaborate bindings sometimes with brass edges and clasps and which has been referred to as the "Livingstone Bible" because it resembles the large Victorian editions of the Bible which were fashionable at the time.
