Description: Houghton Mifflin, c. 1885, no other dates. 1885. Hardcover . First Houghton Mifflin printing? Appears to be a 19th Century copy, but no other dates than copyrighted 1885, having originally appeared in serialized form in Harper's Monthly (July 1885 onwards). Ticknor credited with 1886 first book form. Hardback, 12mo, appx 5 x 7 5/8 inches, pp [vi] + 395 + [iii], gilt stamped brick red cloth, VG to VG+. Quite a nice copy. Scant bit of wear at tips. A few small spots to back cover. Very short tear in cloth (barely over 1/4th inch) centered at base of spine. Fountain pen to front pastedown: "Nelson Lundwall, Bozeman, Montana." Pretty scant amount of interior foxing - primarily a very few light spots to FFEP, first blank page & half-title + a couple of spots nearly ghosted out to nothing on the title page. Edges of textblock very light spotting + a bit darkened at the top edges. Very Good.
