About This Item
Early edition of an American classic - in excellent condition for a 122-year-old book! Minor fraying on the edges of the cover. Almost all the pages remain clean and intact except v-viii in the preface; the ads in the back seem a bit loose, but are hanging in there. Altogether a beautiful and readable specimen!
