This exquisite book is a rare gem for any book collector or literature enthusiast. Published in 1970 by Westvaco Corporation as a limited edition as a Christmas gift for its customers, it features Charles Dickens' American Notes, a captivating account of his travels in America in the mid-19th century. The hardcover binding and original printing make it a valuable addition to any collection.  While the slipcover shows some damage and marks, the inside book is in great condition.
