Published in 1856 in Northampton, Massachusetts, by Hopkins, Bridgman & Co.
The book is intact with no loose pages.
It has significant foxing due to age - meaning the pages are darkened- but they are quite supple.
Some pages are stained, but considering its age the condition is very good.
The cover is printed paper over boards. The front cover has titles enclosed in a tendril wrapped frame; rear cover with publishers advertisement enclosed in a chain-link frame. The cover is scuffed and lightly soiled with some watermarking. There is some edge wear and a divot on the top buy of the back cover; light rubbing wear at spine ends.
Please study photos as part of the description. Photos were taken under an artificial light and brightened so details could be clearly seen.
