Hardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. Good. The inside of this book is clean, the pages seem to be free of bumps, creases, etc. The covers have some wear--the titles on the cover are rubbed, the corners are worn a bit and there's a splash of what appears to be coffee on the front. However, the binding is tight and the book is not as bad as it sounds. No dust jacket, as issued. This is a large and heavy book and will require additional postage to ship outside the US. Pasadena's finest new and used bookstore since 1992. Seller Inventory # mon0000512509
