first edition Hardcover
1893 · [London]
by CUNLIFFE, John W.
[London]: Macmillan & Co, 1893. Hardcover. Good. First edition. Small square quarto. Green cloth gilt. Tipped in are three clippings about the book, sent by and mounted on Macmillan stationary. the rear free endpaper has been removed and cut into patches that cover the publication information on the title page, and other places. There are also a few pencil notes in an unknown hand. Lettering blacked over at the base of the spine. The most logical explanation is that this was either the publisher's file copy, or perhaps a copy owned by the author. Scarce.
