THE OCEAN

by Philip Henry Gosse

Illustrated by Mrs. J.W. Whymper

Published by Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge. Circa. 1860

Very good condition. Second Edition, revised and updated. In this book, the author has endeavoured to describe, with some minuteness of detail, a few of the many objects of interest ore or less directly connected with the Sea, and especially to lead youthful readers to asociate with the phenomena of Nature, habitual thoughts of God. Blue pictorial cloth, gilt title to spine. B/w illustrations within the text. xii and 360 pages plus 4 pages of publisher adverts to rear.

Foxing to covers. Front joint just starting to crack. Some hinges lightly pulled. Foxing throughout. A decent copy.
