Sobre este artículo
New York, NY: Harper & Row, 1965. First Edition, First Thus . Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. EX-LIB. 1965, Stated First Edition. Text/NEW & Bright. Gilt embossed brick-red linen boards/VG; strong & sound w/light edge wear & faint discoloration to spine, & black tape remanent marks along edges. Besides library markings, PO name to first title page. Classic, elegant written guide to London of the 1960s. Portrait of a scattered city knit together from a network of villages, hence the description that to "know London, who is liable to conceal her delights, the only way is by close scrutiny." And so, David Piper, calls the attention of the reader to all that is beautiful, historic, and uniquely curious of this city among cities. The work has been revised & updated with the pragmatic needs of tourists in mind, however, for the magic of David Piper's prose and that of the magic of London half-century ago, a book to read today. Strong copy.
