Description:
Two volume work with previous owners notes on the history of edge on verso flyleaf in pencil, somewhat hard to read. The book is tight and does not appear to have been read. Latin dedication to the philosopher George Berkeley, whose name graces the City of Berkeley California and the Berkeley Pit in Butte, Montana, a superfund site of pollution, which should make you melancholy.Both volumes tight with marbled paper before title page..There is browning of paper in front of both volumes and some spotting at the beginning of each volumeOutside of the previous owners history of the printing, there is no writing, no underlining, no tears or other mars. At rear of volume one three blank pages have a corner turned down.Volume two at the end has table instead of an index.
