Condition

In the original publisher's cloth binding and unclipped dust wrapper. Externally, smart. There is some wear and slight loss to the extremities of the dust wrapper, including some tears. To the binding, there is some minor bumping to the head and tail of the spine and to the extremities. Internally, firmly bound. The pages are bright and clean.

Very Good Indeed
