Description
: Sound copy in full red cloth. Some tone to endpapers and scattered light foxing to a few pages as well as top edge, bottom edge and fore edge of pages (see photos). Previous owner stamp to endpapers and title page. Lower corner of a handful of pages are lightly bumped (see photo). Text block is tight. Dust jacket is sound overall with some rubbing and a couple of closed tears as well as a light stain. Some chipping near spine head. Dust jacket is in an archival dust jacket protector. This is a fairly heavy book and the dust jacket is fashioned from paper that is not particularly strong so this title is most often found without the dust jacket. First published in 1949, this is the second printing (with revisions) of 1953. Questions gladly answered.
