About This Item
1967 1st Ed h/b+dw, b&w photos, col foldout maps Very tight & square, & remarkably clean condition, maps intact and without crease tears. The only foxing is a few very light flecks on prelims & top closed edge. This handsome copy is also inscription-free & has bright gilt spine-titles on vg cloth, still deep red & with no more than a touch of rubbing at corner tips & minor superficial marks. DW is quite good & complete apart from a very tatty spine area (chipped at both top and bottom ends with loss, faded & crack-repaired) but rest of dw otherwise ok - scarce in this excellent condition & with dw - VG.
