Three-quarter brown calf with marbled boards and matching brown-beige endpapers. Professional repairs to the corners, and volumes one and two have been rebacked. New spine labekls. Solid hinges and inside, very clean pages with no stains, no foxing. I see browning on one page where it appears a clipping left a slight browning scar. Top edges gilt. "Martineau, political economist, philosopher and journalist, was also a serious traveler. Her two-year visit to America (1834 - 1836) was a study tour." (Wayward Women, Jane Robinson). Sabin 44939
