    Condition

    In the original full cloth binding. Externally, smart with light rubbing to the extremities and the odd small mark to the boards. Front hinge just starting but firm. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright with the odd small spot and light spotting to the fore-edge. Further spotting to the endpapers.
