The World's Inhabitants; or, Mankind, animals & plants ... With ... illustrations, etc
A popular one-volume survey of the world's peoples, animals and plants written by George Thomas Bettany and published by Ward, Lock & Co. in London in 1889 for general Victorian readers. The wood-engraved plates show costumed figures, village gatherings and dances rendered in dense hatching, useful for regional dress details, crowd groupings and full-page figure compositions.
