Hardcover. Condition: Good +. This is a two volume set, bound in attractively decorated boards. Volume one shows a moderate crack to the center of the binding, as well as outer wear such as mild staining, edgewear and cornerwear. Volume two shows a slightly loose binding (but is comparatively sturdier than volume one), moderate cocking to spine, as well as cornerwear and edgewear. Both volumes also contain foxing, and the previous owner's inscription on their first front endpapers. A very nice set, which would make an excellent addition to any collection.
