About this Item
The Channel Islands. By Edith F. Carey. Illustrated by Henry B. Wimbush. Published in 1924 by A & C Black. Size: 5 1/2 x 8 1/4. Page number: 226. Hardcover. Blue cloth boards with black and gold tiles and an embossed pattern featuring crests on the front and spine. Fourteen chapter include: The Dawn of Civilization, Fiefs and Feudal Tenures, Battle, Murder and Sudden Death, Ecclesiastical Affairs, Privateering and Smuggling, " The Key of The Channel" and The "Garden of Cymodoce". With 32 full page colour illustrations. Condition: Very Good. The boards are clean and the corners and top and bottom of the spine only a little rubbed. The top of the spine has darkened slightly. The binding is tight and the pages unmarked and un-thumbed; but the endpapers are tanned and the whole of the content is affected by foxing. This does affect the printed images however. Condition of jacket: Poor. The jacket is torn and grubby. There is a piece missing from the front. It is in a sleeve which maintains its integrity. Seller Inventory # 000419
