Description

First Edition, INSCRIBED PRESENTATION COPY FROM THE AUTHOR TO SIR GEORGE TAUBMAN GOLDIE, the famous Manx administrator who played a major role in the founding of Nigeria. His role was similar to that of Cecil Rhodes elsewhere in Africa though he lacked Rhodes' thirst for publicity. With outlines and tables and four large folding maps printed in colour. 8vo, original red cloth lettered and decorated on the spine in gilt, the upper cover with gilt rule and decorated with Arabic symbols. xv, 483, 40 ads catalogue pp. A very handsome and bright copy, the textblock unusually clean and appearing as pristine, just a hint of very minor and occasional aging, the cloth especially well preserved and bright with no fading and no real wear.
