summary

Not in JNUL. Not seen by Yaari who based his description on Lowenstein. Yudlov also did not see an original copy and based his description on a small offset version re- issued in New York in 1976. The lengthy wording on the title states that it was translated for the use of women and children.
ff. 16. Some staining, few torn repairs with minimal loss, trimmed. Later patterned boards. Folio.
