The binding is brittle, and it looks as if a previous owner may have done some gluing of the spine, and there's the name of a previous owner written in ink at the top of the front loose end page, then dated March 4th, 1905. It is 6" by 8 7/8" and has 381 glossy pages with an Index of Maori Names, an Index of Common Names, a section of Scientific Divisions, a Table of Contents, black-and-white illustrations and photographs throughout, and a couple laid in newspaper articles from the 1930's by a previous owner.
