The preliminaries and first page are dog-eared at the bottom outside edge, the covers are rubbed, there is intermittent minor foxing throughout the book; the head is slightly bumped from pp 209 to 278 and finally there is an ownership signature on the back end paper and the opposing blank page. Decorative boards with gilt spine. Overall a very nice copy. Please check with us for accurate postage costs, packed the book weighs just over 200 grams.
