History of the Year 1848 - Walter K. Kelly

History of the Year 1848 by Walter K. Kelly, published by David Bogue, Fleet Street, London, in 1849. The text covers events of that year across Europe, including France and Italy, written in the decorative prose style typical of mid-nineteenth century historical accounts.

The book is bound in green cloth with a blind-stamped decorative panel to the front and rear boards, and gilt lettering to the spine reading 'The History of 1848, W.K. Kelly'. The spine head shows significant wear, with the cloth split and frayed, exposing the cords beneath. The boards are rubbed and marked, with staining visible to the front cover.

The title page and text block show scattered spotting and age toning consistent with the book's date. An endpaper carries a pencilled ownership inscription, 'E Winmill, 25 Bank St, Bilston', along with a price of '6/'.
