London: Routledge, 1943. First Edition. Hard Cover. Dust Jacket. First UK Edition. A library stamp to the last page of text and glue reside from the removal of library labels to the rear free end-paper and the rear paste-down otherwise a VG++ copy in nice clean condition. The D/W has a large internally repaired closed tear across the front cover. A quarter of the spine is missing at the base, there is a slither of loss to the head and there is a chip at the bottom of the front cover not affecting any lettering. The effect of such loss to the spine and front cover has been cleverly disguised with photocopies placed underneath. Looks surprisingly good considering. Price present for what it's worth. Scans invited. An uncommon book in D/W. Despite its faults this copy shows reasonably well and is priced accordingly.
