Q: I bought this book at an auction and have not found an identical copy to know value/published date etc.  I was hoping you might be able to provide me with some information about it.  Obviously from the writing it is from before 1898 but that’s all I know.

A: Your book was published in 1898 as part of the Vademecum Series

It is a reprint with nominal value.
