Vintage Landmark Pictorial Cover Hardback in Good condition with a tight binding and mostly clean crisp pages. This is an ex-school library book (Alan Shepard Middle School Library in South San Antonio School District) with the expected library markings, but they are not excessive. Outside covers, corners, edges, and spine show some soiling and wear. But overall a nice book. No Dust Jacket, as there was none issued with the Pictorial Cover Editions. Harder to find title in this wonderful series. Landmark Books and World Landmark Books are accurate, in-depth stories for young people in the 9-15 year old range.
