About this pre-owned copy

This is a near fine book with the jacket, spine, pages and binding all in great condition. The black slipcase is showing some scuff marks externally and also some red transfer internally, I imagine from the cover. This copy is from the fourth printing in 2001. Overall, an interesting volume with good quality plates and illustrations.
