This is a good-quality reprint of a substantial work of reference, not of course now fully up to date with more recent scholarship but still a valuable resource and useful to be consulted. The print image is clear and legible, the binding robust and secure. My copy was sold on from a UK public library reference collection and it looks as if it had never been used!
