About This Item
Washington DC: GPO, 1915. Hardcover. x, 519p., illustrated with a fold-out "Index to Charts referred to in this book," a sort of map of maps (hydrographic maps available from government sources, none reproduced here) - and provided with perforated coupons that entitle bearer to free paperwork (all coupons present and untouched), a massive hardbound item that is ex library. Front hinge is cracked; rear hinge appears to have had the adjacent free blank clumsily adhered to rear pastedown, whether to strengthen the hinge (it is sound enough) or to disguise library impedimentia. A somewhat ugly copy, but handleable and complete, shall we say "fair to good" (good-only). Hydrographic Office, no. 126.
