Overall condition fair: the covers and page edges on this copy are rather grubby and yellowed with age, some light creasing on the spine, but overall not too badly worn; previous owner’s name on the half-title page, and at least 16 pages have a bit of pencilled marking, but otherwise looks in reasonable order internally.
