Hardcover. Condition: Like New. Dust Jacket Condition: Like New. First Edition. A firm and square hardback with sharp corners and strong joints, complete with dust jacket, just showing a few very minor cosmetic rubs. Hence a non-text page has a small 'damaged' stamp. Despite such this book is actually in nearly new condition and appears unread. Thus the contents are crisp, fresh and tight; no pen-marks. Now offered for sale at a very sensible price.
