AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Two green linen bindings with gold-printed spines. Part 1: X, 600 pp. Part 2: 579 pp.
The top and bottom of the spine are somewhat worn. Numerous illustrations, both full-page and in-text. A fold-out map in Part 1. The map is missing from Part 2.
Translated from English. For the modern reader, here and there, somewhat peculiar to say the least, due to the colonialist and racist attitude of the author.
