The first edition was published in 1859. -Condition and Description: Green cloth with gilt titling and designs in blind. The boards show surface, edgewear, and bumping, though not severe. Folding diagram facing page 90 intact. Patterned endpapers and flyleaves. Former owner's name on front flyleaf; else appears free and clear. Missing final flyleaf, but otherwise complete. Hinges sturdy, though the front hinge is slightly tender. The binding is likewise sturdy, but beginning to pull away in several spots, as pictured. In other words, the book is held together well, but no longer fresh and tight. Pages tanned with the minor issues one would expect of a book this age. A presentable, early copy of a book that revolutionized our understanding of the natural world. I4670254151I
