1913 Eothen: or Traces of Travel Brought Home from the East
What Our Customers Say...
Description
Colour Plates, Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding
This edition is characterised by the orange and black original publisher's cloth binding.
With an introduction by Samuel L. Bensusan.
Featuring 12 beautiful tipped-in colour plates by prolific Welsh artist Sir Frank Brangwyn. Collated complete.
Undated, dated from a copy held by the British Library.
Written by Alexander William Kinglake, travel writer and notable historian specialising in the Crimean War. Equally informative and witty, Kinglake documents his travels through "the East", thus providing insight into both the countries he visits and 19th century attitudes towards them.
Condition
In the publisher's original cloth binding. Externally, generally smart with bumping to the spine resulting in slight splitting to cloth. Splitting to cloth at joint, with boards remaining firm. The odd mark to the boards and fading to spine. Internally, firmly bound. Pages generally bright and clean with the odd spot, significantly heavier to the first and last few pages. Contents of coloured plates on page eleven unopened.
