Description: Good. Books are sound and hinges good. Map in vol.1 present. Purple and gilt on boards and spine. Spines have faded, as expected, although the gilt remains reasonably bright. Both spines show extensive wrinkling, probably through poor technique in binding as the hinges are sound and I see no evidence of a reback attempt. Interior has scattered foxing. Books seem to have had little use. read more
"I have a love hate relationship with this series of books. Great because of the drawings and descriptions of the archeological sites not to mention the history that is happening at the time. But I can't stand the way Stephens speaks about the people. I know that that's the way people spoke then, but seriously its dated. If you want to know about archaeological sites because you are a tourist look at other books."
