About This Item
Carbondale, Illinois: Southern Illinois University Press, 1986. Hardcover. Very Good Plus/None. Number line in the work reads as follows: 90 89 88 87 86 6 5 4 3 2. Therefore, I infer this is a first edition, second printing. Volume itself has brown cloth covers with gold lettering on the spine and the ISBN is in gold near the bottom of the back cover. 203 pages. Foreword is by Robert Todd Lincoln Beckwith. Clean & tight. No apparent underlining, no highlighting, no bookplates, no owner names, not ex-libras, not a remainder. A nice copy.
