C. Delagrave & Cie

First edition, of which there were no deluxe copies.
Autograph inscription by A. de. Grisy on the front cover which curiously bears traces of postal franking, the book having apparently been sent as such to its recipient.
Rare.

The first edition published in a small number of copies of this offprint from the 'Bulletin de la société de géographie'.
Two small tears with slight lacks at head and foot of spine, handsome interior condition.
