You might say this book has been ridden hard and put away wet. Its flaws are many, including a cocked spine, a number of stains, and yellowed pages. There is a skinned area on the back cover, and an ink stain on the top page ends at the spine, as visible in photo #3. Photo #4 shows that the ink did not reach the text.

So, if you need this book to complete your collection, here it is, at a rather reasonable price.

Gilt print on the front and spine. Gift inscription inside the front cover (1884, to Ida from Arthur). Pages are gilt-edged all around. They are also clean, tight and unmarked. Chock full of quotations from the mid-19th century and before.
