Second printing (per publisher's number line upon copyright page) INSCRIBED, DATED, AND SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR. xxxviii, 597, [5] pages. Hardcover: H 31.25cm x L 23.25cm. Black dust jacket rubbed; slight scratches to rear panel; slight bumping and some minor scuffs at edges; remnant of peeled price sticker at front flap's top right. Gray boards; spine ends lightly bumped. Author's four-line ink inscription "For Roz, | With best wishes, | James M Goode | 11 May 05" upon the half-title page; faint impression of author's inscription carried through to underlying title page; interior leaves are otherwise clean. Binding retains some crispness. Although specified as a second printing, the book is technically a second edition for the addition of "Preface to the Second Impression" on pages ix-xxviii (the book's first printing has its prefatory Roman-paged section concluding at xxii) and the 1988 first was bound in a more sturdy black cloth and the first limited which was in blue cloth and a blue cloth slipcase. With endpaper maps, frontispiece, Foreword by Carroll William Westfall, two Prefaces, Acknowledgements, Introduction, approx. 690 b/w photographs (most by James Stafford Phillips and James F. Tetro), plans, three appendices, Glossary, Bibliographical Notes, and Index. James Goode reviews the history and design of 162 Washington, DC area apartment houses and condominium buildings, most of which are located within the city's downtown, waterfront, and upper Northwest neighborhoods but several suburban developments in Alexandria and Arlington, Virginia and Chevy Chase, Maryland are included as well. All of James Goode's books were impeccably researched and are absolutely de rigueur for any Washingtoniana collection. Please note that this large book has an approximate shipping weight of 7.75 pounds (3.51 kg) and will require additional postage for any postal class other than domestic Media Mail.
