A few very small tears to corners and ends of backstrip. A few light stains to upper board. Edges of text block somewhat scuffed and yellowed; upper edge tinted.

A collection of Hearn's lectures to Japanese students on the works of Rossetti, Swinburne, Browning, William Morris, George Meredith, Robert Buchanan and Robert Bridges.
