411 pages. The spine strip's tail is damaged and the back board rubbed; there's neat pencil ownership inscription on the front end paper and the hinge along the frontispiece lightly cracked . This does not effect the binding which remains solid. A clean, unmarked and solid copy, though obviously used.
