Item description from seller

Full leather bound. Text block tight and complete with little to no foxing. Boards are securely attached although the front board shows some cracking. There is a quarter inch square loss of the leather binding at the top of the back strip. Previous owner's signature in a 19th century hand on front paste-down. All in all a very presentable copy of this important work by John Walker.
