Library of books about the sea and ships, and precedes the 1940 Hodder & 
Stoughton edition. There is a neat ink inscription, dated 1938, on the 
front free endpaper, as well as a blind stamp, and signatures of former 
owners, and a small, old, grease pen price mark on the front pastedown. 
The book is sl. cocked and bumped, with light scuffing & soiling to the 
boards. Hinges and joints tight; internally very clean. Overall, in good 
plus condition, but without dust wrapper. See Spence 1279.
