Overall condition fair: this copy has no dustjacket; boards and spine slightly grubby, some fraying and bumping at the edges and corners, but overall not heavily worn; internally the binding is starting to split here and there, but no pages are detached; many pages throughout have some pencilled marking or annotation; a pocket inside the front board is now empty, would have contained a map when issued.
