Sobre este item
New York: B.W. Huebsch, 1918. This is a Very Good copy of the Second Edition. Green cloth binding, ruled and stamped on the front cover; gilt titling on the spine. Bright text; ix, 355 pages. This is an ASSOCIATION COPY, with the signature (1920) of Arthur G. Coons (1900-1968) longtime president of Occidental College and one of the architects of the California Master Plan for Education. There is a gift label to Library (with release) on front paste-down, and library numbers in pencil on rear paste-down; these are the only ex-library treatments. However, Coons has heavily notated this book throughout, an insight into his scholarly mind at an early age. Bumped corners; rubbed at the margins. No dustjacket. An interesting historical document.. Reprint Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
