New York: Hurst & Company This rare science fiction adventure title from the author of Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea and From the Earth to the Moon is in Good condition (click on photo). Although the book is not dated, the covers suggest that the book was published around the turn of the century. The front panel and spine have Americanized Art Nouveau floral designs. The front panel has a pastedown of a Gibson-girl type beauty. The book is bound in red cloth and shows wear and discoloration, including rubbing and fraying at the edges and corners, and a crease in the spine cloth. As for the interior, the binding is secure, even though there is a hinge split before the Contents page. The pages themselves have only light age toning, and are for the most part clean, with an occasional small margin stain. The book measures 5 ¼ by 7 ½ inches and includes 286 pages. . Hard Cover. Good/No Jacket. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
