About This Item
New York: Little Brown, 1914. Reprinted 1926 . Hardcover. Very Good/Poor. The interior of the book is crisp and clean. There is a gift inscription (Easter 1927) but no other marks. The illustrated covers are fresh, with light wear at at tips and corners, and shallow bumps at the top and bottom of the spine. The dust jacket is in poor condition, with moderate wear and handling overall, but the paper is missing on the bottom half of the spine. The damage is not very obvious at first glance because the jacket is now in a a protective cover whose white backing corresponds closely to that of the spine. A closer look, of course, shows the problem clearly.
