Item Details: Title - Ancient World; Author - Willis Mason West; Publisher - Allyn and Bacon; Copyright - 1904; Edition - Unstated. Condition: This book is in acceptable condition. It shows signs of wear like rubbing on edges, corners, and spine. The joints are ripped with some material loss. Pastedowns are very dirty and stained. Free - endpapers are missing. The text block is dirty, tanned, and has markings from the previous owner, but readability is not affected. Pages are stained and tanned due to age with markings throughout. The spine is detached from the text block, yet the pages are still firmly bound and the binding is tight, so the pages are easily readable.

This is a rare 1904 hardcover book. If you're a collector, just take it in your hands and enjoy the feel of history. When handling, make sure your hands are clean to avoid further soiling the pages. To maintain it, store it in a dry and cool place away from direct sunlight to prevent more tanning and staining. Since the spine is detached, be gentle when opening and closing the book to keep the pages firmly bound. Even though it has some wear, it's a great addition to any book collection.
