Color Illustrations; This book is in Very Good+ condition and has a Very Good+ dust jacket. The book and its contents are in generally clean, bright condition. There is a light slant to the spine of the book. The text pages are clean and bright. The dust jacket is mostly clean and bright, but has a couple of small edge nicks and beginning tears. "One of the foundations of civilization as we know it is the ability to make and transport fire. Ever since our cave-dwelling ancestors rubbed sticks and stones together, humankind has pursued a quest for an efficient and reliable fire-making device - a quest that has inspired some of the most innovative inventions in history. The collection of the Dutch Lighter Museum Foundation traces this fascinating journey from the fire steels of the ancient world to the tinderboxes of the seventeenth century up to the modern cigarette lighter, which is carefully collected in an astonishing variety of designs." (from the introduction).
