Seller's Description:
pp. 234., 12mo, Translated from the German by Frederick Hardman. First published in the U.S. by Putnam, then reprinted a number of times by Barnes. No date of publication shown here, but this copy is consistent in appearance with other copies we have seen which were published by Barnes in the 1850s/1860s. Boards a bit scuffed & soiled, with some minor rubbing to edges. Foredge a bit stained, not affecting contents, which are clean and unmarked. Hinges and joints tight. Overall, a good plus to just less than very good copy. Bound in publisher's dark green cloth with blind stamped floral design to bds., & gilt lettering to spine. Plain endpapers.
