Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. A monumental anthology of 509 pages collected under five topics related to college life. Volume itself has a bookstore stamp on the title page. Book is otherwise clean & binding is tight. Dust jacket has an approximate 1 1/2" piece torn off the bottom around the spine…. Much smaller tear at top of spine and frays and tears at top and bottom of the dust jacket on both the front and back covers. Book itself is in very reasonable shape but the dust jacket leaves a lot to be desired. What can I say? It has a dj of sorts. A serviceable reading copy.
