Notes Cloth is sound but dust marked. Papers to boards are age toned and dusty with loss all round the edges. Rear board has quite a few mark and smudges. Internally the pages have a few scattered minor marks but are general clean and neat. The front inner hinge is cracked though the mull or webbing holds the book firm. Possibly missing the front endpaper, the rusted staples are exposed to the side of the title page.
