This book is falling apart. The cover is missing the spine. And some of the pages are completely detached. There are names of previous owners written and stamped in the front, as well as a library plate. And there’s lots of discoloration. The only date we can find is MDCCCLV (1855). It is unclear if this is when the book was printed.
