About This Item
Cambridge University Press. Used - Very Good. 1965. Hardcover. Cloth, dj. Cloth, dj. Price-clipped dj has rubbing to panels, sunning to spine, mild toning to edges, and wear at corners. Nonetheless dustjacket is bright and attractive overall. Slight shelf wear to boards. Expected age-toning and touch of foxing to text block edges, but text remains clean and bright. Former owner's bookplate on front paste down. Internals otherwise clean. Altogether an attractive copy. Very Good. (Subject: Ancient & Classical Studies).
