The contents, with a presentation inscription from Adrienne Kaeppler to Roslyn and Axel Poignant in blue ink on the front endpaper, are otherwise clean throughout. Complete with the lightly rubbed and creased, price-clipped dustwrapper that has a couple of small nicks and tiny closed tears to the edges.
Inscribed in blue ink on the front endpaper "For Ros and Axel / This book's true home / with much love / Adrienne / June '78". A wonderful presentation copy between two world renowned anthropologists Adrienne Kaeppler (1935-1922) and Roslyn Poignant (1927-2019).
