1862478SB<p>10th title in the series. A very-well-bound volume in original pebbly Blue cloth. Corners and binding with minimal wear; lettering on spine slightly faded but still easily readable. Contents Very Good and clean; the only flaw per se is the fact that there are 2 wrinkles on most of the pages about 1/3 from the top and 2/3 from the top. It's as if 2 round items have been in the book for a lengthy time and the book has had considerable weight on it to make these impressions. Still a handsome little volume despite being around for 161 years so far.</p> Fred'k A. Brown & Co. hardcover
