Hardcover. This copy just back to us from the bindery where the original text block and rear cover have been paired with new spine and front cover to restore book to functional and attractive condition. New materials are a neutral brown kraft paper, spine blank, and title stamped on front cover with rubber stamp -- The completed restoration appears plain brown as it sits on the shelf, and the stamped front cover hearkens forward to the elementary school tradition of covering your textbooks with brown paper (to protect them). Unusual and interesting (and also very easy to remove in favor of a more traditional binding, if necessary. Front endpaper with ownership name dated 1819 (David Lyan?) and another name signed on title page (Thomas Scott). Text block tight. Pages faded by clean. 379 pages. Please email with questions or to request photos. If you see a photo beside this listing, please be aware that its an ABE Stock Photo (whatever that is) and not a photo of this book (although sometimes they do get it right).…

If you'd like tracking, please let us know before you place the order - We're happy to do it but it costs $1 extra because it means we have to print a shipping label for it individually, slowing down the shipping process considerably -- and we want to be able to keep basic shipping costs as low as we can.
