About This Item
San Francisco: Loome Booksellers & Ignatius Press , 2002. Facsimile of the original edition published by Benziger Brothers, Printers to the Holy Apostoplic See (1909). Hardcover. Fine. 5 3/8 x 8 1/4. 2H. Full cloth-covered boards. A beautiful book. This title is widely available in cheap reprints, but this book was issued by Ignatius Press in a fine edition in full (real) cloth with gilt titles, printed on high-quality paper stock. The sewn binding is tight, with perfect hinges. There are no marks, and indeed little if any signs of use. (Please note that the isbn printed on the copyright page belongs to another Ignatius Press book. I do not know the actual isbn for this title, if any.)
