La Haye (The Hague), Netherlands: Henri Scheurleer, 1734 Book. Illus. by Many Engravings and Foldouts. Very Good. Full Leather. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Original full leather hard cover. Text in FRENCH. From the private library of a Danish family, and in exceptional condition. I see only one small cut to lower right cover, with no leather missing. I see no evidence of anything missing among the spectacular engravings and foldouts. This is an early reprint of the 1729 Paris edition, but appears to be even more difficult to find. We have chosen the most enticing view in our opinion, but would be pleased to supply more upon your request. This is a heavy book in 6 parts individually paginated, over 500 large pp. in all. Please research and respond! NOTE; Since this is a consignment, our usual discount of 20 per cent to the trade does not apply..
