Sobre este artículo
Ventnor, NJ: Ventnor Publishers, 1949. Hardcover. Small 4to. Black cloth with gilt spine lettering, pictorial price-clipped dust jacket. xiv, 560pp. Frontispiece, illustrations. Near fine/very good. Bit of mild jacket edgewear. A tight and handsome first edition of this thick overview.
