Add to basketHardcover Library. Condition: Very Good. No Dust Jacket. First Edition. A clean, tight copy, bound in red library buckram and withdrawn from circulation. Library markings are minimal. The library binding lacks charm, but it gives the text a sound and sturdy home. There is a slight lean to the binding. This book contains a quite…remarkable trove of photos and other images, which the author must have worked long and hard to assemble. Wheel barrows, bulldozers, pile drivers--if it moves dirt, you will find it here. Quite a history! Fast shipping, careful packing. ; Ex-library.
