See photos for condition details. Hardcover, includes the original publisher's page marker, that was issued with the book. Brown cloth boards show only minor handling wear and light corner bumps, the worst being at the top center of the rear board. There are a couple small bumps to the cloth also on the rear board, near the upper right corner. The text portion of the interior binding is tight but there is a thin hinge crack starting at the front board. There are no signatures or handwriting but the front pastedown contains a small bookplate from the original owner. No publication date listed, with the only date being shown of 1905 at the end of the introduction. The overall condition grade is close to fine, but was adjusted lower because of the thin hinge crack at the front board and the bump at the top of the rear board.
