"The Moon: A Full Description and Map of its Principal Physical Features" by Thomas Gwyn Elger is mostly intended for the use of lunar observers, but it is hoped it may be acceptable to many who have a general interest in astronomy. Through maps and the scientific knowledge available in the 1800s, Elger does a very good job of trying to present the known data on the moon with an open and unbiased mind. The book also gives a detailed description of the features of the moon you can see from earth.
