A very good or better book with a contemporary inscription to the verso of the illustrated front end-paper. The inner text is clean with the odd sporadic mark, but overall a nice clean book in a very good or better price clipped dust wrapper. Light loss to the spine tips, with some light rubbing to the extremities. There are two small, faint tape marks to both the front and rear flaps, else a surprisingly clean wrapper with no fading to the spine, and with a very clean rear panel.
