Value Breakdown

• Retail Value: £18 – £22 This matches active listings on rare book platforms like AbeBooks. 
• Resale Value to a Dealer: If selling to a used or antiquarian bookstore, expect to receive approx. £5.00 – £8.00 in cash or slightly more in store credit. Dealers generally buy stock at 30% to 50% of the target retail price to cover overhead and shelf time.

Factors Affecting Value

• Edition & Scarcity: While it is a First English Edition, the book is a translation of a political text that was widely printed at the time, making it culturally interesting but not highly sought-after by high-end investors. 
• Condition Deficits: The lack of a dust jacket, heavy foxing on the text block edges, corner crushing, and internal pencil/ink markings keep it firmly in the “Good/Reading Copy” tier, preventing it from reaching premium antiquarian pricing.
