Description
No marks or inscriptions. A lovely clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and spine, very slight foxing to page edges and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or marked or torn or creased with a little foxing to sunned spine. Fold-out map at end in excellent condition. Protected in a very good slipcase with rusty staples and lightly foxed title label to spine. 192 plates plus 279pp. A very detailed study of North African and Middle Eastern architecture from around 3000 to 3500 BC up to about 500 BC. Very well illustrated.
