What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding, Scarce, With Dustwrapper

A fascinating early twentieth-century work on transportation and roadways through England, including a review of the roads, review of travellers that use them, traffic patterns in England, a history of the roads, and modern motoring. 

Written by R.M.C. Anderson and including a foreword by Sir William Morris. 

The first edition of this scarce to find work. 

Illustrated with sixteen maps. Collated and complete. 

Enclosed in the original dust wrapper.

Condition

In the publisher's original cloth binding. Externally, very smart, with just some light shelf wear and bumping to the head and tail of the spine. Original unclipped dust wrapper has some loss to the head of the backstrip, and chipping to the tail of the backstrip and extremities. Some light wear to the wrap. Internally, generally firmly bound. A few spots to the pages, which are otherwise bright and clean.

Very Good Indeed
