Placing the cursor over the title page will reveal the front board. This image and the image of the book's spine show the condition of this interesting book more eloquently than words. A tear in the cloth between the spine and the back board can just be seen starting just below the author's name and continuing for 7 cms. Also seen on spine's image are remains of library marks. |
