About This Item
Hamilton, Adams, and Co, 1862. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. 2nd revised edition in original pressed boards. The boards are rubbed and edge worn, with the cloth slightly frayed at the top and bottom edges of the spine. Aside from this, they remain strong and square, with bright gold gilt to the spine. Internally, the hinges are cracked and there is marking and foxing throughout. There are no inscriptions, however, and the pages within are neat, square and complete with the frontispiece. Tightly bound and in excellent condition for its age! JK. Our orders are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.
