About This Item
370 Pages. Stated First Edition. Dust jacket Not price-clipped.
This intrigue-filled seafaring ex-library book's dust jacket is encased in a protective plastic covering and thus is well preserved. The exterior of the book though has worn corners and wearing at the base and top of the spine as well as along the bottom edge. The inside book, being ex-library, has the library's stamp and lending sheet on the inside front cover and on the first page along with the stamp of a past bookstore. There is also a smudge mark on another of the pre-book pages and at the top of page 18, but otherwise, there are no other visible extraneous markings throughout the book with the print being preserved well and the bindings being sound and tight.
This book will be carefully wrapped and boxed up and then sent right away to you from here in New Jersey and it comes with our absolute appreciation for your order.
