About This Item
George Allen & Unwin, 1967. Fourth Impression. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 664pp, price clipped, no inscriptions, small bookplate from The Family Bookshop Kuwait to the front paste down, illustrated. In this copy the folding maps and geneological charts are incorporated in the text, we count six sets of charts and nine folding maps, the last one of which is a motor road map at the end of the text section and before the appendicies. A couple of the fold outs have an additional crease but none appear to have any tearing or damage. There is very slight rubbing to wrapper, especially to top and bottom of spine but no tearing or fading, wrapper is now in a clear removable protective sleeve. Very little wear internally, overall an exceptionally nicely conditioned copy. Happy to supply photos on request. Heavy book, please inquire for postage outside the UK.
