About this copy
This volume forms part of Hodder & Stoughton's 'Days with the Composers' series, uniform with companion volumes on Beethoven, Chopin, Gounod, Mendelssohn, and Tschaikovsky. No specific printing statement is visible in this copy, so it is offered without a first edition claim. The book retains its original pictorial dust jacket, featuring a portrait of Wagner and printed with the original price of Two Shillings net on the front panel.
The jacket shows considerable wear, including a vertical tear through the front panel and old tape repairs.
Condition
- Book
- Good – boards and text block appear sound and clean; decorative endpaper border visible and intact.
- Dust jacket
- Fair – a prominent vertical tear runs through the front panel and portrait, with visible old tape repairs and general toning and edge wear; the rear panel is comparably better preserved but still shows soiling and wear.
This is a pre-owned book, and minor age-related wear may be present beyond what is specifically mentioned. All readily visible defects have been described to the best of my ability. Please see photos, which form part of the description.
