Sobre este artículo
London: William Heinemann, (1930). First edition. Observations from his travels. Lacking the front free endpaper and rear blank otherwise very good with some offset from binding to endpapers. In about very good dust jacket showing some scattered foxing and general light soiling, a bit of fraying to spine ends and corners and a little rumpling. Still, a bit nicer than often seen.
