Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

First impression of the revised and expanded third edition of this monumental work. With many illustrations and maps throughout the book. A very comprehensive work, originally published at £50. ***Near fine in brown cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to the spine. The boards are clean and unmarked. No bumps or creases. Corners sharp. Page block edges clean. No reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. Internally also near fine with no inscriptions. No creases or tears. Pages clean - printed on nice quality paper. With an integral place-marking ribbon. ***In a near fine illustrated dustwrapper, which is not price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of £50.00. The dustwrapper is virtually fine, with no chips, tears or creasing. No fading even to the spine. Dustwrapper bright. ***255mm x 180mm. 1101 pages including a sixty-page Index of People and General Index at the back of the book. ***Contents: x, Index. ***'Unmatched for scope and of peerless authority, "The London Encyclopaedia" distils the heritage of Europe's greatest city. Arranged alphabetically, nearly 6,000 entries explore every monument, building, street, park and suburb of importance, as well as events, institutions and themes relevant to the city's past glory and present vigour. Here, rich in detail, alive with wit and well served by two indexes, is everything anyone could possibly want to know about London. For the third edition of this well-established book, the text has been extensively revised and updated, taking London into the twenty-first century. Contemporary images have been added to the more than 500 period prints, drawings and photographs, while new entries cover a host of current icons and reflect the capital's cosmopolitan and multi-cultural dimensions. Mosques and temples challenge the ubiquitous churches, and the glazed geometry of corporate power is saluted. Everything of relevance to the history, culture, commerce and government of the capital is documented. From the very first settlements through to the skyline of today, "The London Encyclopaedia" comprehends all that is London.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***First impression of the revised and expanded third edition of this monumental work, in its original dustwrapper, in near fine collectable condition. A beautifully produced book and a fascinating social history study of London. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. ***PLEASE NOTE this is a VERY HEAVY BOOK, and we will need to charge EXTRA SHIPPING for a sale outside of the UK.…
