Book Description Limited Edition Hardback numbered 190. Reading/reference copy only. Tight sound copy with heavy wear to covers, some browning to edges of interior pages, highlighting to interior text making this a reading/reference copy only. Previous owner was a pipe smoker and book has a distinct pipe-smoke scent but this is certainly more pleasing than a cigarette smell in my opinion. Seller Inventory # 132842
