This vintage volume is "The Works of Hubert Howe Bancroft, Volume XVI, History of the North Mexican States and Texas, Vol. II 1801-1889'' and published as a presumed first edition in 1889 by the History Company in San Francisco, California.
The hardcover volume measures 6 by 9 inches and contains 814 pages, including an index. The boards are full leather with gilt lettering on black spine tabs, and the edges of the text block are marbled. The boards show wear and compromised le...ather, especially at the fore edges. A section of leather is missing from the head of the spine, and the hinges are weak. The name of a previous owner is stamped inside the front board and on a pastedown, and a presentation notation dated 1915 is written inside the rear board. The pages are a bit toned, and there is evidence of very old damp-staining to the last free endpapers and index, but the contents of this volume far outweigh any condition issues.
