Summary
Bibliographic description
[34] p. : col. ill. ; 17 cm. Provenance: Nineteenth-century monogram book plate with hand of Ulster, lettered "G.J.H.E.L." [i.e. Georgiana Crewe nee Stanhope Lovell (1824-1910). Also inscribed "Georgiana Crewe, the gift of my dear uncle the Revd. G. A. Whitaker 1848" and in the same hand in a different ink "To my dear son Hugo Harpur Crewe, May 3, 1903". Presumably it is therefore Hugo Harpur Crewe [(1858-1905), youngest son of Sir John Harpur Crewe 9th Bt and Georgiana Stanhope Lovell] who has inscribed the bookplate "From my mother 1903". Binding: Nineteenth-century publisher's blind lettered quarter leather on papier mâché boards under black plaster, illustrated in high relief. Marbled endpapers, gilt edges. All leaves detached.
