This stunning first edition book dates from 1886. With a beautifully illustrated gilt and embossed cover and spine, it tells the story of the stunning West Coast of the South Island supported by 20 illustrations including hand drawn landscape sketches and plates of specimen trees, plants and ferns.
Rambles on the Golden Coast was a best selling hit in the day, reprinted many thousands of times, but here we have a true original in very good condition for its age.

VG, Rare, scuffing to cover edges, minor tear to inside frontis spine, very minor foxing, book integrity strong and tidy. A very nice copy overall.
