You will have to click "see original listing" then look at the photo descriptions. It's nearly 200 yrs. old. Back then it was a feat to have all those pages printed and reproduced, bound into sell-able copies. Plus who could afford to own such a piece, most could not even read. I found it most interesting.

I'm rather surprised at the low price. A beautiful piece. :D

Man I'm kicking myself. Much more than $100 enjoyment.

I found new copies for as low as $7. But a good first edition would be very cool.

I too would enjoy reading this. Bet the Howdah is mentioned.
