London: Constable , 1974. Cloth. Near Fine/Very Good Indeed. 10" by 7.5". Barbara Jones. A lavishly illustrated book dedicated to eighteenth century craze for folly-building by Barbara Jones, complete with unclipped dust wrapper.

Complete with unclipped dust wrapper. In the original publisher's full cloth binding. Externally lovely with minor bumping to head and tail of spine. Dust wrapper smart with light shelf wear, sunning to spine and wraps. Internally, firmly bound. Light minor faint spotting to fore edge, not affecting pages that are bright and clean. Near Fine
