PARDOE, Julia; W.H. Bartlett, illustrator.
The beauties of the Bosphorus.

One of the most popular and attractive of all books on the Bosphorus. This work was obviously planned to take advantage of the great success which 'The City of the Sultan' had achieved. This present edition is enlarged from the 1838 edition with an appendix on the Crimean War and 6 extra plates. Atabey 922; Blackmer 1254.
