Dr. A.P. Sawyer's Encyclopedia of General Information Facts and Figures for All
Professions and all different Occupations". This has over a million facts. The
title page has a date of 1888 but the back cover has a date of 1893. This book is
illustrated and has some charts.
This is full of information - Flipping through the book found health information,
Mercantile law, events of the Civil war, Information for housekeepers,
measurements and more.

The pink cover has fallen off and has lower right corner missing as well as some
staining. Back paper cover has picture of the Administration building a the
Columbian Exposition in 1893. This has a missing corner and tear. The inner
pages are for the most part very good. I found one edge tear and some small
corner folds in the lower right corners.
