About This Item
New York: Harper & Brothers. Good/Good. 1959. 1st Edition.. Hardcover. Stated First Edition. There is a small dent at the top of the front cover and some creasing at the top corner of the book. Otherwise, there is slight wear to covers and spine. There is an ink over scoring of a previous signature on the front free endpaper. There are also ink dates written on all the pages at the top corners. Evidently, a previous owner kept track of the dates of their prayers. Otherwise, contents clean and tight. Dust jacket is quite worn/rubbed with chipping. There is also an old sticker abrasion on the front cover or the dust jacket. This is basically a good solid reading copy. .
