About This Item
Cambridge University Press, 1911. First Edition. Hardcover. Good/No Jacket. The boards are shelf rubbed and edge worn, with the cloth frayed along the edges and the spine faded and tanned. Despite this, they remain strong and sturdy. Internally, the hinges are cracked, and there is a previous owner's signature under the front board. There is some tanning and sporadic foxing throughout, but there are no other markings or inscriptions, and the pages within are neat and complete with all maps, including one in the pocket at the back of the book. The binding remains secure. In good condition considering the age of the book! JK. Our orders are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.
