About This Item
London: Hamish Hamilton. Near Fine in Very Good+ dust jacket. 1991. First Edition. Hardcover. 0241129664 . Signed, and dated '91, by the Author on the front free-endpaper. Black cloth bound boards with Bright Gilt titling to the spine. In the original publisher's pictorial dustjacket, which is NOT price-clipped, but has a small gold name/address sticker to the front corner of the inner flap - relatives of the Author I think? . There is some VERY light edge-wear and a VERY little creasing to the dustjacket covers - Negligible - along with the base colour to the spine of the d/j which is VERY lightly faded (a very tiny shade lighter than the front/rear covers, but so slight I almost didn't mention it) but all lettering/titling is still unfaded and Very clear and bright . There is also some very light rubbing to the very tips of the corners of the boards, otherwise there are NO other inscriptions or marks. Unpaginated. Illustrated throughout with b/w and colour photographs. Overall, apart from the negligible 'faults', as detailed above, this is a Very Clean, Tight and Bright, 'Near Fine' copy, now in a new protective clear - removable - bookfilm plastic cover and looks Fine. "A stunning collection of evocative and informative photographs capturing the rich traditions and everyday life of the Berbers. Within the borders of Morocco, and unknown to many of the thousands of tourists who visit the country each year, live the Berbers, whose way of life has hardly changed for centuries. Keohane lived with the Berbers for two years and was invited to participate in local celebrations and festivals & photograph family life....." ; Small 4to 9" - 11" tall; Signed by Author .
