No title page - probably issued without one. No date - c 1880 - late nineteenth century. Some rubbing to the head and tail of the spine with some splitting to the cloth of 1.5 cm at the head of the spine and 0.5 cm at the tail of the spine. The top corner of the rear board has been significantly bumped with some splitting to the board. Less so to the front board. Some light scattered speckle to the lower edge of the front board and slight soiling to the first page. The body of the book is slightly loose. An interesting good copy.
