Canvas with cover and spine titles (rubbed and bumped). - Complete first edition with the extremely rare third volume. - Not listed in Nissen, BBI, or Martini. - Entirely in Georgian and Russian, the first two volumes also with abridged English text.

Overall, a very well-preserved copy of this rare work.
