Description

UK: Little, Brown & Co., 2017. Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. From the majesty of Venice, Turkey and Greece to the ' Baroque flourish ' of Sicily, the lush, unspoiled valleys of Ty-Mynydd in Wales and the rugged beauty of Porthcurno in Cornwall - this book celebrates the qualities that have made Sawday's guidebooks unique: rich peculiarity of location and warm, eclectic hospitality. There is very light tanning to the text block and a closed tear to the head of the front panel on the d/w, which has been repaired with a patch on the inside of the d/w. A good, tight and clean copy..
