Hardcover. Second printing of this new edition with White's revision and introduction. Binding slightly cocked with very light wear at the corners and spine ends, trifle musty, light offsetting on the endleaves and lower board very slightly bowed, very good in lightly worn and evenly soiled, very good dust jacket with a bit of interior foxing. Originally issued by Strunk to his students (White among them), the book enjoyed modest success, but since the publication of this revised edition it has been a perennial favorite of the genre.
