Overall condition fair to good: this copy has some mild scuffs on the covers, a little wear on the edges and corners; pages yellowed with age; in other respects doesn’t look too heavily used, the spine is a bit faded with some mild bumping at its base, but is not creased from reading, and the text appears to be free of marking.
