U.S.A.: Dorset Press, 1988. Book. New. Hardcover. 1st Edition. Brand new first edition clothbound hardcover in new- jacket. This book could not be in more pristine crisp condition if it came fresh off the press today. The covers are so crisp and tight it feels as though no one has ever opened it to look inside.
