Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. ONE AMERICAN S OPINION OF THE EUROPEAN WAR F.W. WHITRIDGE WWI 1914 HC.

The gilt titles are fully legible and attractive. The spine is faded and the gilt titles there hard to see. Inside the book is unmarked and the pages are clean and bright throughout.
