A very good minus copy in very good minus jacket. No inscriptions, but a neat printed bookplate is pasted to the preliminary blank page. Original publisher's brown boards - silver embossed to the spine. Maps to the endpapers and a number of illustrations illustrate the text. The tail of the spine and the rear lower board corner bumped and a light bump to the lower front board corner with light associated creasing to the overlying jacket. The jacket has not been price-clipped - it has some light rubbing towards the tail of the spine, some fading to the spine (the titles remain legible), a crease to the upper corner of the front flap and some shelf wear.
