General shelf wear to extremities, especially top and tail of spine with some creasing/chipping. Corners slightly bumped. Previous owner's bookplate and inscription to front paste down end paper. Some foxing to prelims. Binding fairly sound with weak hinges and a few splits/cracks to binding between some pages.
