An abstract from Churchill\'s Voyages and Travels. Circa early/mid 1700\'s. Text only. Certainly lacking a map and possibly lacking some plates. Bound together with other accounts of voyages to New Spain, Philippines, Macao, Manila, etc. A tall book, beautifully rebound in half-calf, with marble boards. Raised-bands to the spine, with a red leather title-label and attractive blind-tooling. The majority of the contents are in very clean condition. Odd pages show some marking, mostly light, though occasionally heavier. Marginal ink inscriptions to a handful of early text-pages. Overall a very nice example indeed.
