About This Item
John Murray, 1839. Hardcover. Good/No Jacket. With a new leather spine. 1 plate is missing, the rest are present but uncoloured. Map present. The boards are shelf rubbed, edge worn and marked, with fraying in the corners. Despite this, the boards are strong and sturdy. Internally, there is a previous owner's signature under the front board and age-related tanning, foxing and edge wear throughout but the pages are otherwise neat and complete. The binding is sound. In good condition for its age. JK. Our orders are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.
