Historic market towns, fine churches and country houses steeped in atmosphere contrast with the bustling commercial and naval life of Southampton and Portsmouth. In the heart of the county, ancient Winchester remains tranquil and serene, the great cathedral proudly dominating the town, and in the South-west the rugged beauty of the New Forest complements the diverse nature of this delightful region. More than 100 of John Baker?s delicate and revealing line drawings enhance a satisfying and comprehensive text.* A NEAR FINE copy of the 1st./1st. with NO MAJOR FAULTS. Protected dust jacket.*
