Condition: As described - overall it's in pretty nice condition but with some unfortunate flaws that I've described and shown in pictures. The dust jacket has typical shelf wear and some light creasing. It's covered in a Brodart archival cover that they seem to have glued to the cover boards. There is a significant tear along the edge of the first free endpaper - I thought about trying to glue it and decided to just leave it be for the new owner to decide, but if you want me to glue it I can try. Someone wrote "15,684" in ink on the cover page. Other than these quirky flaws, it's really nice - a good book that will look nice on the shelf and be a good read!
