About This Item
Hodder & Stoughton, 1882. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. The pressed boards are shelf rubbed and there is some light fraying along the top and bottom edges of the spine. Aside from this, the boards remain strong and square, with gold gilt to the front and spine. Internally, there is some very light and sporadic foxing, but there are no other markings or inscriptions, and the pages within are crisp, clean and complete. The binding is sound and the book is remarkably well preserved for its age. JK. Our orders are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.
