Hardcover. Condition: Very Good +. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Both the book and the dust jacket would be in near fine condition but for two factors. The dust jacket has a one inch tear at the bottom in the front - which should be protected from getting worse and not look bad at all when I put new plasticene… on the dust jacket. On the page opposite the front cover the previous owner has stamped her name in 1/4" red letters at the top of the page.
