32mo. 42pp. Engravings throughout depict buildings, statues, and other manmade constructions of particular notoriety, including the Temple of Diana at Ephesus, the walls of Babylon, and the Colossus at Rhodes. Oddly, the section on the "seven wonders" excludes the Lighthouse of Alexandria in favor of a general description of the labyrinth. Bound in plain printed wrappers. Exterior generally rubbed, some foxing to interior, else very good.
