Hundreds of books in these genres being catalogued and shelved daily. Cloth hardcover with gilded pictorial front board and spine, no dust jacket, in very good condition for its age.

Edges, corners and spine ends are bumped and rubbed, with small tears at the spine ends. Page block is tanned and blemished. Previous owner's bookplate on front pastedown. Foxing on the endpapers, and spots of foxing and the occasional mark on a few of the pages which are otherwise clear. Hinge and gutter breaks noted, however binding remains sound. LW. Used.
