Description:
4to, 5.5x8.5. Cover in very good condition with minor cover bumps and some scuffing to gutter. Bright green cloth with gold title on spine,which is not faded. The copyright history is interesting. 2 were granted in 1886, 2 in 1889, 2 in 1898, 1 in 1899 and the last to the Century Company in 1900. On the cover page, the date shown by Doubleday, Page is 1906. I am not quite sure what a first edition would be.This is a very good copy for its age. There is a previous owners faded stamp on the inside left cover and there is a faint crease on the inside right cover page. Other flaws in the book are some pencil notes and marginal lines that are unobtrusive on pages 4,5,6,8,13,17,18,75. The pencil notes could be easily erased if the owner is so inclined.On page 93 are 2 tears apparently made when trying to separate uncut page 93-94. The tissue covering the frontis picture of Carnegie is intact. Carnegie at one point was the wealthiest man in the world. This book explains his views on wealth, poverty and what… Read More
