Schott Miscellanies

Format: Hardback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £99.26
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Schott's Original Miscellany is an indispensable and unputdownable collection of essential uncommon knowledge and vital irrelevance where you will stumble across such tantalising entertainment as the thirteen principles of witchcraft and a nursery rhyme about sneezing.

Schott's Food & Drink Miscellany is a snapper up of unconsidered trifles, giving to the reader such indispensable information as the correct technique for lighting a cigar and which king served foie gras to his dog.

Schott's Sporting, Gaming and Idling Miscellany enlightens us as to why snooker is important to nuns and the nature of every single sporting ailment from jogger's nipple to housemaid's knee.
