Kuwait, Self-Published, 2002. 2002, 1st Edition. Hardcover with dust jacket. Hardback, quarto, appx 9 1/4 x 11 1/2 inches (24x29 cm), pp [viii], 415, [i], Fine in VG+ dj (dj in new protective mylar). Book itself essentially flawless. DJ (white titles on brick red background, with an illustrated front panel) has minor crinkle bottom edge of back panel + a few apparently naturally-occurring veins of anomaly (not detracting a great deal) that appear in the clear varnish dj surface coating (as from dimensional shrinkage - very minor front panel, a little worse on the unprinted back panel). Color photography throughout including endpapers + some vintage b&w photos. Printed throughout on quality coated stock. Fine/Very Good.
