Sobre este artículo
John Murray, London., 1992. First U.S. edition. Octavo. pp xxiv, 565. Illustrations and maps. The dustwrapper blurb describes the book as ''ominously topical'' and this unfortunately seems to be even more the case in 2023 than it was at the time of writing.Head and tail of spine slightly pushed. Very good indeed in near-fine dustwrapper slightly creased at the edges.
