About This Item
E. Hodson, 1794. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. Includes a suppressed passage, however, all illustrations have been removed. Neatly rebound in quarter leather with raised bands and gold gilt to the spine. The boards are shelf rubbed, edge worn and marked, but remain strong and sturdy. Internally, there is an ex-libris plate under the front board and age-related marking and some sporadic pencil annotation throughout. There are no inscriptions, and the pages within are neat. The binding is secure. In very good condition indeed, considering the age of the book. JK. Our orders are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.
