Living history at its best.
Excellent content and sumptuously illustrated throughout. The book accompanies the series of the same name but has additional information which was not included in the series. It is a handsome addition to any bookshelf. Thoroughly enjoyed it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
