Description

8vo., First Edition, with title in red and black; in contemporary full roan, sides with elaborate frame border in blind enclosing arms of Balliol College in gilt, back with five raised bands, second compartment with leather label lettered in gilt, all other compartments ruled and tooled with a stylised cross in blind, bevelled boards, blind tooled doublures, red edges, marbled endpapers, very neatly recased, a remarkably fresh, clean copy. MICHAEL CHERNIAVSKY'S COPY WITH HIS SIGNED INSCRIPTION (Oxford, 1940) ON FRONT FREE ENDPAPER. Michael Theodore Cherniavsky (1920-1992) was a renowned and long-serving (1948-1966) master of history at Christ's Hospital School and subsequently Professor of History at the University of Waterloo, Ontario from 1967 to 1983. Educated at Westminster, he was appointed Brackenbury Scholar at Balliol College, Oxford during which period he acquired this copy. A very scarce work, and a bright example of the Balliol binding armorial.
