This is a very good hardcover with dust jacket. 1990 Harper Collins. This copy is very good inside and out. NOTE: scuff inside front cover top left corner where sticker removed and there is mild separation of black quarter trim cloth cover from binding only present top few inches of spine, see photo of both top and bottom binding. This minor flaw does not interfere with page binding as all pages tight to binding. The inside pages are actually still crisp and clean. The accompanying dust jacket is very good with only hints of shelf wear. The hardcover boards are very good and clean with only the aforementioned black cloth quarter trim mildly loose top of spine. Medium octavo book size or 6.5" x 9.5" with 1195 pages including index.
