Technique of Operations on the Bones, Joints, Muscles by Robert Soutter 1917 HC

This is a rare 1917 first - edition book titled 'Technique of Operations on the Bones, Joints, Muscles and Tendons' by Robert Soutter, published by The Macmillan Company. The book is in good condition despite some minor wear. The fabric cover and spine show rubbing and light soiling, with edgewear on the spine and cover. The corners are dented and lightly frayed. The binding is tight, and there's some foxing on the text block that doesn't affect readability. There are pencil markings on the front endpaper, and the title page and half - title page bear an ink signature 'S.J. Paul' dated 1918. A gift receipt on the publisher's letterhead is included.

This book is a great resource for those interested in historical surgical techniques. To use it, simply open the pages and start reading. As it's an old book, handle it gently to avoid causing any further damage. When you're not using it, store it in a dry and cool place. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight or high humidity, as this can cause the pages to yellow and the cover to deteriorate. If you notice any loose pages or signs of further wear, it's a good idea to take it to a professional book restorer.
