About This Item
Philadelphia PA: John Grigg, James Crissy, Towar and Hogan, J. G. Auner. Good with No dust jacket as issued. 1829. First Edition. Hardcover. In pretty good shape for its advanced age. The leather-covered boards have lost any lettering they may have been graced with, but they are intact, and the binding is quite sound. There is considerable foxing and tanning to the text, and the pages are wavy, although not from exposure to water, which would have ruined the binding. The text is perfectly legible. The book is not illustrated, alas, and of course the author is not the famous surgeon, but a French one who has faded into obscurity, but anyone who is interested in the complete work of the subject of The Gross Clinic will want this book. Fast shipping, with tracking number provided. .
