Boards with light edgewear, rubbing to joints and extremities, spine very slightly cocked and sunned; front hinge cracked causing loose upper board and free endpaper with some separation from text block; bookplate on paste-down, offsetting on half-title, light grime and offsetting on final free endpaper verso, pages lightly toned but otherwise clean and unmarked. A good copy of this fascinating title, lacking jacket as typical.
