    Description

    First Edition, Folding Maps, Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding, Very Scarce

    The vanishingly scarce first edition of this informative publication.

    Illustrated with a folding map, and with four double-sided leaves of plates. Collated, complete.

    A collaborative effort between the Council for the Preservation of Rural England and the Roads Beautifying Association, this work examines the impact of the United Kingdom's expanding trunk road network on rural landscapes.

    Former owner's inscription to title page head.

    The report emphasises the necessity of integrating aesthetic and environmental considerations into road planning and construction, highlighting the potential adverse effects of unregulated road development.

    Condition

    In the publisher's original paper wraps, with photographic onlay to centre of front board. A touch of fading to back strip, with inscription to front wrap head. Otherwise, excellent. Internally, firmly bound. Pages bright, with instances of spotting and foxing.

    Very Good Indeed
