Minor jacket edgewear, with couple small edge chips at head of age toned spine. Quite attractive and tight early printing of this standard 1942 hands-on how-to chock full of (to cite front jacket panel) "Thousands of important facts, half-forgotten, mislaid, left behind in crowded training schools -- you'll find them all stowed in this handy volume...." On top page edges is inked "Lt Ismond" -- possibly Marshall T. Ismond, a Chicago attorney who joined the Navy in World War Two and whose ship was torpedoed in the Atlantic in 1942, causing him and several shipmates to drift in a raft before being rescued by a British ship. A superb copy.
