Well-made book, bound in sturdy cloth-covered boards with bright embossed gilt lettering on the spine. The book itself has no notable flaws, does show minor signs of use and/or age. There is very light wear to the cloth at the spine ends and just a touch right at the corner tips, but please NOTE: the great majority of the cloth binding shows no wear at all, and in many respects the cloth appears almost as crisp and fresh as new. The book is quite clean and stain-free, square and straight, still quite firm and tight in its binding, no pages are loose, torn, folded, or missing. The corners have not been bumped, the hinges are sound and undamaged. All pages are clean and stain-free, with just the slight, soft patina of age that one might expect, and all text remains crisp and legible. There is no writing, underlining, highlighting, or any other such markings anywhere in the book. The dustjacket has minor wear and chipping at the corners and at the top and bottom of the spine, but like the book, the great blance of the jacket shows no wear at all. The white areas of the rear jacket panel are somewhat age-toned. The jacket is very clean and stain free, basically complete and intact, NOT price-clipped. Five-star seller, buy with confidence, professional booksellers for 35 years, selling books online since 1995. LR1.
