About This Item
London, UK Oxford at the The Clarendon Press, 1941. Hardcover First Edition [1941]; Fourth Printing [1951]. Has some serious problems, but in overall appearance, remains Very Good+: shows just a hint of wear to the extremities; a small soil spot at the lower backstrrip; very mild rubbing; The binding is square and secure; text clean. Despite these minor flaws - and some more serious ones (see below), remains a handsome copy: clean, sturdy, and quite presentable. Would make a very handsome reading copy. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club. This must, however, be some sort of rudimentary Ex-Library. The front free endpaper has been removed, as has a portion of the front pastedown endpaper. There is a binder paper "pocket" at the rear pastedown endpaper. 8vo. (7.4 x 5 x 0.65 inches). xxxi, 203 pages. Introduction and Notes by Sir Humphrey Milford. Dark blue cloth over boards with silver titles at the backstrip. Language: English. Weight: 10 ounces.First Edition [1941]; Fourth Printing [1951]. Hardback: Lacks DJ.
