With 6 plates bearing Maurice Greiffenhagen's black & white illustrations. --- In dark green cloth-covered boards with shadowy image of the steamer SS Nan-Shan amidst stormy seas; orange titling and accents. Lacks a dust jacket. --- With prior owner's signatures in 3 locations (twice on title page), light wear & minor soiling to cloth and discreet New York bookseller label to rear paste-down, otherwise a tightly-bound, sound copy.; 12mo - 7 to 7-1/2 in. tall; v, 205, (4, ads) pages .
