Book VG: name on front paste down, toning to endpapers, text clean, binding intact/DJ VG: age toning, mild edge wear, not clipped. 8vo 236pp. from front flap: "This anthology is the first of three and contains a cavalcade of eyewitnesses' accounts of events between 55 B.C. and A.D. 1485. The inside story of the invasion of Britain by its organizer, Julius Caesar (assassinated two millennia ago), precedes familiar accounts like the survey of Norman London by Thomas Becket's secretary, and novelties like the menu for Henry V's coronation banquet. Dramatic actions and homely scenes, in the words of participants, illustrate varying facets of life." #02244.
