Item description from seller

Second edition (later printing?). Occasional illustration to the text. 8vo. Original dark green cloth, blind-tooled, gilt lettered to front panel & spine, some wax splashes to the boards, but contents very good, binding square and tight . The editor explains in his preface that 'I have made great alterations'. The second volume in the Field Library, as stated upon the spine. Possibly a later printing of the second edition since there are no publisher's advertisements to the paste-downs (as found on other copies).
