Solid and VG (light offsetting at the endsheets and pastedowns, mild soiling to the panels) in a crisp, price-intact, VG- to VG dustjacket, with very light chipping along the top-edges and the spine ends, and spotting along the flap-folds and the spine. Small, neat former owner name as well at the front free endpaper. Still though, solid and moderately well-preserved.
