About This Item
Charles Scribner's Sons, 1922. Leather Bound. Very Good. Very good red flex leather leather hardcover (no dust jacket) (4 1/2 by 7 approx) shows touch of soil and shelfwear to covers, mild exposure toning along spine, previous owner bookplate at front pastedown and some other mild trace wear. 391 pages with top page edges gilt. Still a pleasing leather bound copy of this edition of the classic work that features a preface by Mrs, Stevenson.
