Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners slightly rubbed, not price clipped (£15.99), no inscriptions, newspaper review tipped in, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy. 387pp. The Basques are Europe's oldest people, their origins a mystery, their language related to no other on Earth, and even though few in population and from a remote and rugged corner of Spain and France, they have had a profound impact on the world. Whilst inward looking, preserving their ancient language and customs, the Basques also struck out for new horizons, pioneers of whaling and cod fishing, leading the way in exploration of the Americas and Asia, were among the first capitalists and later led Southern Europe's industrial revolution. Quite a scarce book. Seller Inventory # 009180
