It is a good standard work from the classic literature, not obscure, not 
particularly distinguished, now quite dated especially as regards chemicals, 
etc, but worth owning at a modest price if older irises interest you. It went 
to a couple of editions and was reprinted in paperback by Dover. The latter 
may still be in print. The price you mention is not egregiously out of line 
although I have seen it in hardcover at lower prices. You may wish to compare 
several available copies at http://www.addall.com.
