Description:

x, 605, incl. index

Tight and clean copy of the 4th ed. of this authoritative Spanish reference grammar. Although based on grammatical standards established by the Real Academia Española, this work provides complete coverage of Latin American forms as well.

The minor wear is limited to a bit of bumping to forward corners. No signs of provenance. The book has apparently been consulted, but the text is completely clean and unmarked; durable sewn binding tight. In sum, VG.
