Beautifully written book by the great American historian Prescott that is still widely read and enjoyed for it scholarly value and wonderfully sophisticated language nearly 200 years later. This edition encapsulates two of his monumental works in one book. Although the original works were published separately in the 1840s, this wonderful edition is not dated but likely from the 1930s, and is a first edition and first printing of this edition. In good condition. Print on spine is faded. Cloth bound cover has a small mark on it (image 1 &2) and dried glue is visible on the inside cover (image 3) and on the first page (image 4). All the Inside pages are in excellent condition with no marks. 1.08kg, 15x21x5cm
