A fairly well-presented copy, with some spotting and browning around roughly-cut outer page edges, but no major creases or tears. Lightly browned endpapers, but the contents are largely presentable throughout. Covers firm and secure with gilt titles bright, some spotting towards the edges and browning along the spine but again no major wear. Why on Amazon do most sellers not describe their actual book?
