POLLUTION

Folio, 29 + [i] pp. Disbound. Text complete and clear. Fair, on lightly-aged paper. Faint accession stamp at head of title. 'In accordance with the request of Viscount Palmerston, conveyed in Mr. Fitzroy's letter of the 31st day of October 1853, the Board have instituted very extensive inquiries among those acquainted with the means for the prevention of smoke, a great part of the evidence thus received being given in abstract in the Appendix to this Report.' The appendix runs from p. 11 to p. 29. Scarce: the only individual copy on COPAC at Southampton.

An extremely informative and illuminating collection of twenty-nine scarce ephemeral items in the field of socio-economic local history. All 8vo unless otherwise stated. All in very good condition, but requiring rebinding or disbinding, as the binding is in poor repair, with the spine lacking.
