ENCYCLOPEDIE D'HISTOIRE NATURELLE
by Chenu, Jean Charles
Very Good. Paris: (1870's). This is volume one, entitled Hawks and Owls, from the set of french natural history encylopedias from the late 1800's. The interior is clean and tight with many plates and text illustrations. This copy is ex-library and has the usual markings. The binding has marbled boards with a leather spine and the front board is partially detached. The boards are rubbed around the edges and chipped at the corners and the spine is chipped but intact and legible. Overall a good copy with very good contents. . (Inventory #: 41861)
