Possibly lacking a frontispiece. The free front endpaper is ink inscribed "Dr. J. S. Perkins | with the compliments of | Geo. H. Napheys | 3/14/70." A publishing peculiarity: this…book was evidently subjected to being issued in at least three different titles within the space of two years, each title being differently worded, though essentially with the same messaging. See ATWATER/HOOLIAN 416, and Volume III of that bibliography as well. A good copy. Inscribed by Author(s).
