Condition
In the original publisher's binding. Externally, generally smart with age toning and the odd mark to the covers and spine. Bumping to the head and tail of the spine and extremities, as well as rubbing, heaviest to the joints, which has resulted in minor splitting to the tail of the cover's spine. Rear hinge strained. Internally, generally firmly bound with bright, clean pages.
Very Good
