Condition: Hard cover, Ex-Lib, covers show some wear and soiling; the first page of the index has had a piece clipped from it which most likely was the library stamps so part of the index listing on the back side is missing; text is sound with few small tears, some small soiled specks, little light foxing on a few pages and light age discoloring but overall a good sound copy.
