Description
London: John Murray, 1817. Second Edition. Translated from the French. Hardcover. Very Good. Half calf and marbled paper, gilt-stamped lettering in red leather spine label. Upper board detached. Some offsetting onto endpapers; very faint foxing on title-page; otherwise internally nice and clean. An excellent candidate for repair, though it'd be a shame to lose the previous owner's bookplate (attached to front paste-down): "William Hetherington / His Book / 'And please return it. You may think it a strange request, but I find that although many of my friends are poor arithmeticians, they are nearly all fo them good bookkeepers.' -- Scott."
