Discrete and tasteful bookplate placed on back of half-title page.Top text-edge tinted the same sienna color as the photo , map-drawings and dust jacket. Dust jacket has three chips to top edge, tips and price of $3.75 intact at bottom of front flap, closed crease like a finger-tip abrasion on back panel, flap-corners have all been minimally and neatly trimmed, protected in a new, clear Brodart cover.
