A scarce original edition sold despite its condition as a historical reference copy. 16mo, 6 3/4" tall, 294 pages (the essential content without original covers), spine covered by leather of uncertain origin and attached to a thin piece of wood which may have been part of the original cover on the front side only). This is a fair copy only and sold as is. The covers are missing along with endpapers; title page missing and the possible contents page, along with most of title page (publisher name, city, and date present on a small portion of lower title page); the primary contents are present, paper is moderately yellowed and foxed throughout, first and last page somewhat soiled from exposure, a few pages are marginally marked, many pages are dog-eared and the fore-edges are roughed with use but still supple. Because paper is not fragile, this could be rebound despite condition. Priced accordingly.

Store description
Avenue Victor Hugo Books specialize in first editions of the best in fiction, history, biography, poetry, drama, and essay, as well as the good items which happen to come our way in other subjects. Genre literature such as Science Fiction, Fantasy, Mystery, and Westerns will remain of special interest to us. We also carry many collectible magazines, including TIME, LIFE, National Geographic, and Playbill. Our catalogue features careful, considered assessments of all of our stock. We are not flippers selling books by the pound. Instead, we try to limit our stock to books in a condition we'd be proud to place on our personal bookshelves. Books are something to be cherished, so that's what we do. After years of running our bookstore on Newbury Street in Boston's Back Bay, our store has moved. We are now located in Lee, New Hampshire, less than 10 minutes from the University of New Hampshire. Our store is open from 10am to 6pm every Saturday.…
