Very good condition hardcover in chipped, rubbed and price-clipped dust jacket. Handmade non-adhesive removable mylar sleeve. Previous antiquarian seller's inventory and price penciled on the first page. An unusual stain on page 139 and a small hole/tear to the spine of the dust jacket (see images). Some obvious signs of ageing given the year of publication, including browning of the pages but nevertheless a solid copy, well preserved. Heavy book, 1056 pages.
