Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. First Edition. Two volumes (complete). A placid set. The dustjackets are scruffy. They have scuffing, rubbing, wear all about.

Very occasionally the foxing about the trims invades the fringes of the pages. Otherwise, the contents are most pleasing. They are convivial, tidy, smart, clean and clear.
