Published in 1896 by Wilbur B. Ketcham in New York. Large leatherbound book. The pages are in quite nice condition overall, especially for its age. A few pages show some wear. The preface has a piece of tape on it (6th picture). The front board and first few pages are separated from the book (3rd picture) and the back board and last few pages are separating, but still connected fairly well (shown in the 11th picture). There are small pieces of tape in the bindings of the front and back cover, which I'm not sure if they are original or placed later to strengthen the binding. The leather on the cover is quite worn and somewhat crumbling/powdering and there is a piece of cloth tape on the left side of the front cover. Please see the pictures.
