Description:
David McKay Company. Hardcover. Acceptable. Used acceptable condition. Cover is worn with old staining in select spots and fraying at the corners and edges. The spine has fraying at both ends and minor splitting from the cover. A good strong binding holds the pages together very well! The pages are clean and legible with some pages being lightly torn from use (near the binding or at an edge) however it hardly detracts from this anachronistic title. This is a very nice copy of a rare out of print book! Expedited shipping available at checkout. Thank you for supporting small independent book stores!
