VERY SCARCE 1891 First Edition. Near VERY GOOD Condition with light external soiling, some soiling to page edges, a small, half inch tear to top edge of title page and 2 tears at the bottoms of pages 354-355, and several pages remain uncut as shown. I have found only one page with an accidental ink mark on page 352. There is no other writing I can find, no loose, torn or missing pages and the book has a tight, firm binding with a very slight lean to the spine. SCARCE title. Only other available copies appear to be lesser condition and only found in England. This item is being sold by Books and Collectibles, LLC. International buyers pay $8.99 shipping to eBay hub.
