Octavo/8vo. Measures around 9" by 6" by 1 5/8". Red cloth boards and spine with gilt lettering. Considerable wear to covers and spine, substantial denting, marking and discolouration with several tears. Back board particularly damaged, with heavy indentations, puckering of cloth and tearing. Cracked front inner hinge and binding a little strained but holding reasonably well. Several pages at back of book uncut. Marking to page edges, which are deckled and have been cut quite neatly. Odd marks to page surfaces, especially at rear where there are some stains, but apart from this and a couple of numbers written on endpapers, pages generally clean with no underling, marginalia, etc. See pictures for more information.
