Author: James Aikman, George Buchanan
Title: The History of Scotland, Translated from the Latin of George Buchanan; With Notes and A Continuation To The Union In The Region of Queen Anne
Description: Book is Very Good in no dust jacket. Half-Leather binding, First Edition, Blackie, Fullarton & Co, Glasgow, 1827. Ex-library set of 4 volumes rebound in high quality half leather, tasteful dark green with lighter green cloth boards, bright gilt on spines, no library marks visible on outside. These have good shelf appeal and the leather feels whispery and nice. New endpapers, library labels on each flyleaf. Toughened cloth inner hinges, the bindings are perfect for frequent use, these will not fall to bits anytime soon. First and last few leaves of each volume a bit browned smudged and foxed, the insides are yellowed but reasonable throughout, bar the odd foxed page. The map opposite p1 of vol 1 is missing. Engraved portrait fronti of each volume OK if foxed around edges. Vol III has a corner stain on the frontis and slight wrinkling of the very page edges all the way through, so a waterspill at some point, but fortunately not too detracting. Overall a respectable set, ideal for frequent reference. Size Royal 8vo

Title: The Scottish nation; or the surnames, Families, literature, honours, and Biographical History of the People of Scotland
Description: Book is Good in no dust jacket. Blue cloth binding, First Edition, A. Fullerton & Co, Edinburgh, 1864. 3 volume set in royal blue blindstamped cloth, gilt stamped panels on spine with crown, lion rampant and thistle devices in compartments. Gilt bright on unfaded spines, cloth shelfworn at ends with top of vol II repaired with patch of matching blue cloth on inside. Corners fraying, but not threatening to split down hinges, these are heavy books so take a bit of wear. Text blocks in good order generally, no foxing or such. One or two of the signatures are working loose, the spine glue is a bit old and brittle, but nothing that couldn't be put to rights with the proper book glue. Inner hinges cracked in endpapers but scrim OK. A few b&w and colour plates here and there, with tissue guards intact, the ones we found anyway. Overall a servicable set, pages still uncut after all these years. Size 4to
