Prospecting for Minerals: A Practical Handbook for Prospectors, Explorers, Settlers, and All Interested in the Opening-Up and Development of New Lands

Original 1899 copy of "Prospecting for Minerals: A Practical Handbook for Prospectors, Explorers, Settlers, and All Interested in the Opening-Up and Development of New Lands." The book is overall in very good condition with some minor signs of wear and age. The covers have some light soiling and wear. The binding is good and sound. A very few pages have some minor penciled bracketing and underlining. The rest of the interior is lightly toned from age but is mostly nice and clean, though there may be the occasional page with a light bit of foxing or grubbiness. The backside of the rear free endpaper has some evidence of erased writing. Along with that there may be the very occasional page with some kind of other minor imperfection such as a tiny chip or tear, light bit of soiling or grubbiness, minor stain or marking, creased page corner, minor interior crack, etc. Generally though, it's a nice copy. The book measures approximately 7 3/4 inches by 5 1/2 inches and is 239 pages long with some additional ads at the rear. Please look at all of the photos to further note the condition.…
