Chatty Letters from the East and West by A. H. Wylie, 1879 First Edition, Author-Inscribed

An entertaining account of travel across continents, Chatty Letters from the East and West follows A. H. Wylie’s journey from London through India and Australia, onward to China and Japan, and finally across North America. The letters describe cities, landscapes, people, and travels of the 1870s. The 1879 London edition includes a portrait frontispiece and an attached folding world map.

This volume is especially appealing for its striking black cloth binding, decorated on the front with gilt birds and flowers and titled in red. It also bears an inscription from the author. Black endpapers and gilt edges add to its presentation. Premium stock paper for the pages.
