Description

Signed Binding

In a Riviere binding, with the binder's stamp to the verso of front endpaper.

Macaulay's political writings are famous for their ringing prose and for their confident, sometimes dogmatic, emphasis on a progressive model of British history, according to which the country threw off superstition, autocracy and confusion to create a balanced constitution and a forward-looking culture combined with freedom of belief and expression. This model of human progress has been called the Whig interpretation of history.

Condition

In a full tree calf binding. Externally, very smart with just some minor rubbing to the joints. Small split to the head to the front joint. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean.

Overall: Very Good Indeed
