Hardcover. Etat : Good. Condition is Good. Would be graded VG+ except for some previous moisture damage to the top ledge. Which resulted in the blue boards being whitened along the top edge. More noticeable on the rear cover. This also resulted in the end papers having a brown stain along the top edge, which is more noticeable in the front than the back. But none of this has affected the text pages, which are clean and appear unread. Deckle-edged. Tight binding. No date of publication but the Preface page has September, 1909.
