Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

The front cover is lightly raised and the leather lightly rubbed at the edges. In its centre it has the gilt crest of Ivanhoe Church of England Grammar School; the spine has a leather paste down with gilt author and title. There is a lovely book plate on the front paste down and a school award sticker on the front end paper. In the full leather rebind both hinges have been reinforced with brown vinyl and the end papers and paste downs with marbled paper. A very attractive copy. 215 pages, illustrated. The book, the authorised English version, was awarded to a fourth form student in 1941 while allied troops, including Australian ones, were fighting nazism, strong supporters of Franco. The last page is a battle hymn sung by the Nationalist forces. Interesting. 'The Siege of the Alcázar was a highly symbolic Nationalist victory in Toledo in the opening stages of the Spanish Civil War. The Alcázar of Toledo was held by a variety of military forces in favor of the Nationalist uprising. Militias of the parties in the Popular Front began their siege on July 21, 1936. The siege ended on September 27 with the arrival of the Army of Africa under Francisco Franco." ( Wikipedia) Introduction by F.Yeats-Brown.

Descrizione dello Store

Good Reading was established in 1991. In early 2013, I downsized from a shop which spanned a block and two stories to a largish house which resembles a rabbit warren. There are at approximately 40,000 titles, including over 10,000 books in Italian, French, German, Modern Greek, Latin and classical Greek., most of which have not yet been catalogued. I also have a very large Theology section, and a substantial cookery and Australian History one. Please contact me if there is a specific title you are chasing as it may be languishing on the shelf uncatalogued. All enquiries will be answered promptly, books will be mailed out swaddled like Russian babies, and all faults honestly described. I do a full refund for any book sporting nasty surprises.
