Condition
A good reading copy. The book has tanned pages and the inner binding is pulled a bit but remaining in strong readable condition. The dustwrapper is rubbed at the head and tail of the spine, with a little chipping to the edges and joints but remains attractive and is now within a protective sleeve.
