Overall condition good: a defective copy: pages 121-142 have been awkwardly bound during manufacture, so that the text area on some of these pages appears very close to the page edge, though no text appears to be lost; looks in good order in other respects; the dustjacket is ruffled and slightly grubby, but not badly worn; the text appears to be free of marking.
