Description

8vo., First Edition, with a frontispiece, 7 plates and 15 maps and diagrams in the text; broad-weave cloth, buckram back with leather label lettered and ruled in gilt, uncut, covers lightly age-soiled else a very good, bright, clean copy. With small neat institutional stamp on front paste-down. This attractively produced work, published for the British Reinforced Concrete Engineering Company, is perhaps the scarcest of the author's studies of the history and development of the English road. Cahill 80.
