A propos de cet article

First edition. 8vo. 601, [1, blank] pp. Early twentieth century half calf with brown cloth covered boards, spine with five single raised bands outlined in blind, second and third panels lettered in gilt, top edge in gilt, fore and bottom edges untrimmed, with the original printed label tipped-in to the inside rear pastedown (armorial bookplate of Iain Ramsay of Kildalton to front pastedown, some light spotting to title page and terminal leaves, otherwise generally internally clean; modest wear to extremities, still a very good, wide margined copy).
