The Poetical Works of John Greenleaf Whittier 1888 edition

Description The leather cover (not sure if it's real or man made) on this book is quite worn and pulled loose on the front top and bottom right corners.  However the spine, signatures, binding are exquisitely strong and pages are tight and clean.  It's as if it were just worn from sitting around, not read much.  The print is all very clear and clean, and illustrations are excellent.
