Accompanied by Andrew Carnegie, who was America's richest man near the close of the 19th century, Champlin offers an interesting account of his stagecoach journey to Ilfracombe, and shares his perceptions of the Guildford, Exeter, and other towns they pass through on their way. In the original publisher's green cloth binding. Externally, generally smart with some light rubbing to the boards, joints, and spine. Bumped to the head and tail of the spine with a little wear at the extremities. Front hinge a little tender. The title page is very loose and there a is a small chip in the rear endpaper. Internally, generally firmly bound with a little strain at pages 144 and 145. Pages bright and clean. Very Good.
