Item description from seller

Light/moderate wear to the binding. Spine cloth is soiled. Bump to the top fore-edge of the front board. No slope, no twist to the book from reading or improper shelving. Pages are tight and clean with no marks. There is the tide line of a water stain to the fore-edge of the text block. This does not affect the reading surfaces of the pages. Previous owner's name in ink on the front flyleaf. No odor. The dust jacket is rough: quite edge worn, shabby. Next owner may wish to discard it. But in the meantime the dust jacket is in a protector to prevent further damage. Given the cosmetic issues discussed, best to regard this as a reading copy.
