Dear Jesus,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. My sincere apologies for the delay with the appraisal.
The presented object appears to be the hardcover book written by the British author Henry Fielding (1707-1754) with the title "The History of the Adventures of Joseph Andrews, and his friend Mr. Abraham Adams" or short title of the back of the book "The Avan of Jose Andrews". This is the first volume of two which was published by Andrew Millar in 1751 in London as the fifth edition of this title.
This piece is in medium condition and there is some coloring the paper visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 100 to 200 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.
With kind regards,
George
