The History Of England
By Miss Corner
Published by Dean And Son: London - c1875 (undated - ninety-second thousand edition)
In Original Cloth Bindings With Foldout Map & 3 Plates

" A handsomely produced Victorian history for younger readers, The History of England by Miss Corner presents a broad chronological account of the nation from its earliest period through to the author's own time. Written specifically for "Youth, Schools, and Families," the work was designed to combine straightforward historical narrative with the moral and educational aims typical of mid-19th-century school histories, moving through the reigns, political changes, wars and major events that shaped England.

This undated ninety-second thousand edition, published in London by Dean & Son and dating to around 1875, reflects the considerable popularity and long publishing life of Corner's histories. The title page advertises a substantially illustrated and reference-oriented format, including a chronological table, pictorial genealogy of the English monarchs and accounts of principal events, making the volume both a narrative history and a practical Victorian educational reference.

The present copy remains in its attractive original blue cloth binding, decorated in black and gilt to the upper board and spine. It retains the large folding map of England and Wales together with three engraved plates, including the frontispiece, giving the book strong visual appeal. An old Warrnambool bookseller's label and an inserted Commercial Travellers' Show / Local Red Cross Fund notice add a pleasing Australian provenance element to this well-preserved example of Victorian historical publishing."

Old water damage to back cover and general fading and wear etc to covers and spine. Binding solid with no loose pages. Foldout map with some tears but present. 3 plates present. Book presents well and is an excellent reading condition. Please study photos to further understand condition.
