About This Item
Oxford University Press, 2003-05-01. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. 10x8x2. 759grm (blue spine) 2003. First edition, first impression. A lovely, fresh, clean, tight near fine copy in similar jacket. Original publisher's black boards - silver embossed to the spine. The text supported by numerous photographic reproductions in b/w. The slightest of bumps to the tail of the spine. No inscriptions. Possibly originally distributed by a book club as there is no mention of the ISBN number or a barcode to the rear panel. The jacket has not been price-clipped (again no mention of price) and has some light shelf wear. A lovely, well preserved copy.
