Condition
In the publisher's original cloth binding. Boards exceptionally bright. Bumping to back strip head and tail, with light fraying in these regions. Hinges strained, and just a touch tender. Internally, firmly bound. Pages bright and clean, and just a touch age toned to perimeters.
Very Good
