Condition
In the publisher's original cloth binding. Externally, very smart. Previous owner’s ink inscription to front free endpaper. Previous bookseller's small label to front paste down. Dust wrapper, very smart. Slight age toning to perimeters. The odd minor handling mark and slight soiling to wraps. Slight rubbing and bumping to extremities. Internally, firmly bound. Pages bright and clean, if slightly age toned.
Very Good Indeed
