Title:
Acupressure: An Excellent Method of Arresting Surgical Haemorrhage and of Accelerating the Healing of Woulds
Description:
Book is Good Red Cloth binding, First Edition,
John Churchill & Sons, London, 1867. A presentable copy in blindstamped and bevelled boards, with gilt titling on front cover but no titling on the spine. The corners and spine ends are somewhat frayed, but even so the binding is not too delicate. The yellow-coated endpapers have been glued down along their inner margin, no doubt to strengthen weakening hinges at some time in the past. The binding currently has a solid feel. There is some foxing near the endpapers. The text block is generally clean and dry and free of stains or disfigurements, and the engravings show to advantage. 190pp.
