About This Item
New York: A.L. Burt, n.d.. Reprint Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. The covers are quarter bound leather over marbled boards with gilt lettering on the spine. The covers show rubbing which enhances the period appearance. Endpapers are marbled, gilt top edge, clean contents and a tight binding. This edition was part of the "Burt's Library of the World's Best Books" series and, unlike the typical A.L. Burt reprint, is bound in a high quality binding.
