12mo., First Edition, neat contemporary inscription on front free endpaper verso; original salmon cloth, upper board blocked with gilt cross, backstrip blocked and lettered in gilt, bevelled boards, red edges, black endpapers, very neatly recased, covers very lightly age-soiled else a remarkably well-preserved, bright, clean copy.
Unusually robust copy of the original edition of a seminal work more often known in the second edition of 1903 which, given its availability, was comparatively widely issued. A RARE SURVIVAL.
