Condition
In the publisher's original full cloth binding with paper covered boards. Externally generally smart, with a little bumping to the extremities and the occasional mark to the spine and boards; front hinge is starting slightly as a result of the book's size. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are just a touch age-toned to the edges.
Very Good
