Antique 1870 copy of The Nations Around by A. Keary, published by Macmillan & Co.
Bound in full brown leather with raised bands, gilt ruling, and all edges gilt. Features a decorative title page and an original fold-out plate depicting an Egyptian judgment scene from the Book of the Dead.
Includes an early handwritten gift inscription dated 1874. Interior remains clean and complete with typical age-related foxing. The fold-out plate is intact and displays well.
Binding shows wear with rubbing to the spine and edges, consistent with age. Despite this, the book retains strong visual appeal and remains a solid example of a 19th-century illustrated antiquarian volume.
A desirable piece for collectors of early illustrated books, Egyptology interest, or decorative leather-bound works.
