Sobre este artículo
London: Constable and Co. Limited, 1935. Book. Good. Hardcover. Second Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. xl, 403 pages. Six maps, including two which fold out inside back board. New edition of the 1902 first edition. "In the first place [the Battle of Adowa] may rank as a peculiar phenomenon, - for it amounts to nothing less, - that a European army of about twenty thousand men should be annihilated by a native African race. To the best of my belief there is no parallel case in modern history." - Preface to first edition. Prior owner's details written atop front free endpaper. Small address ink stamp upon half-title. Armorial bookplate upon verso of half-title. Bit of writing atop recto of back free endpaper. Prior owner's name rubber stamped in several places through book. Prior owner has written a handy map list in calligraphic hand upon title page. Average wear to publisher's red cloth-covered boards which are sunned at fore-edges and backstrip. Binding intact. A sound copy..
