Book description: New York, NY, U.S.A.: Saint Martin's Press, LLC, 1997. Dustjacket is slightly edgeworn, book is clean and tight but somehow there is a faint picture of part of the dustjacket on the front cover and I don't think the book was made this way. It is odd for a book and jacket of usually stable colors. The bottom inch of the front board is faded. Now in acid-free Brodart.. 1st Printing. Binding is Boards. Near Fine/Near Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
