The original binding has a later (but still apparently 19th century) leather covering laid over with a square cut out on the spine for the original leather title label to show. The binding is rubbed and bumped but sound. An ex-library copy with remains of bookplates on the front pastedown (one has a handwritten date of 1828). There is a tear in the gutter of the title page, and the first leaf of the Table of Contents has a large portion torn away with significant loss of text. Browning around the edges of the title page, and the text of the book is toned with some foxing. A few pages have edge tears. Text of the main body of the work is complete.

Sobre Pages Past Used and Rare Books
Pages Past is a small used & rare bookshop located a few blocks from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Since 1996 we have been serving the Triad community as well as customers from around the world. We have around 15-20,000 volumes in our shop. We specialize in North Carolina, Virginia, Civil War, Old Leather, Christianity, Eastern and Western Philosophies, and the simply unusual. We very likely have the oldest books in Greensboro; we keep a nice selection of antiquarian volumes and scholarly books.
