Blackie & Son's The Comprehensive History of England, Civil and Military, Religious, Intellectual and Social from the Earliest Period to the Close of the Russian War, (although later in the series, Blackie decided to end a little later with the suppression of the Sepoy Revolt). This version published across 12 volumes as opposed to the more luxurious leather bound four volume set. Bound in cloth on hard covers and with gilt tooling. Illustrated with over 1,000 engravings. Edited by Reverend Thomas Thomson. Published 1851. Quite well used and a little battered and worn with most volumes having bashed corners. Some speckling to the pages and part of the binding on a few of the volumes has actually torn. But then, this set is about 150 years old. Each volume measures about 10 1/4 x 7 1/2 inches 26 x 19 cms. The 12 volumes weigh 8.5Kgs
