BONWICK, James

French Colonies and their Resources

London, Street, 1886.

Octavo, viii, 152 pages plus a folding colour map.

Gilt-decorated cloth a little marked, rubbed and sunned on the spine; first and last pages a little offset; an excellent copy.

The verso of the flyleaf carries a warm presentation inscription from the author to E. Paris Nesbit QC. The recipient was Edward Paris[s] Nesbit (1852-1927), 'lawyer, libertine, lunatic' - read the Australian Dictionary of Biography and be suitably amazed.
