Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. Quarter-bound in brown leather, with cloth sides, complimented with brown leather corners, and gilt titles on the spine. This hardback book is in really good condition considering its over one hundred years old. Some wear to the leather, the paper connection between the first illustration page and title page, has torn, however its still a reasonably tight binding. Normal wear, marks and tear apply consistent with use and age. Pen and ink name and address on first blank page and very tiny spotting here and there, hardly noticeable but thought it prudent to mention. 326 pages all intact, all pages, text and illustrations are in fine, clean, readable order. Its a really fascinating, thick, heavy book, with an abundance of wonderful illustrations, perfect for any bird enthusiast.
