Nissen, ZBI 4459 u. 1825c. - The final edition, edited by Sylvanus Hanley. This is probably the last book on conchology following the Linnaean system. Hanley, however, did include a synopsis of the (modified) Lamarckian system. One of the former owners was Churchill Babington (1821-1889), who taught archaeology at Cambridge. Small repair to top of spine, bookplate on front paste down, small stamp on plate versos, inscribed by former owners (19th century) on front flyleaf verso, explanation of the abbreviations used by Wood and Hanley on free endpaper. Plates clean, images bright.
