Item description from seller

See photos for condition details. Hardcover, great cloth boards tornado decorated on front and spine. Exterior shows some scuffing and soiling along with spotting at the bottom of the front board. Edges and corners also show bumping/wear. The internal binding is good at the hinge is but there is pulling present at various page quadrants, which also set a bit offset on the exterior fore edge of the pages. There is no publication date listed (circa. 1890) nor are any author's names present. The only reference to the timeframe is on the title page that states "From the four hundred and second thousand, English edition". The front end page shows remnants of presumably a gift inscription that was later erased. No other handwriting or any other markings/labels found in the book.
