The Franco-Prussian War: Its Causes, Incidents, and Consequences... With the Topography and History of the Rhine Valley

Henry Montague Hozier; William Henry Davenport Adams

Of interest especially as a well-preserved specimen of Victorian part-publication, as originally issued in 7 "Divisions" at 5 to 6 shillings a piece. In the final part is included the title pages, designed for binding up the work in two volumes, which is how the work is usually found. No date, but a "note to subscribers" dated 1872 tipped to the front leaf of Division 7. HEAVY SET, EXTRA SHIPPING MAY BE REQUIRED.
