First edition, second impression.ย  112pp, with plentiful monochrome, full page photographic illustrations.ย  Red cloth-covered boards, gilt titles to spine.ย  Slim 8vo.ย  Nice, bright cloth covers, just a little rubbed and rounded on corners and spine ends.ย  Hint of toning to text block edges.ย  Internally neat, clean, bright and tight.ย  In its original glossy, illustrated dust jacket, price clipped, shelf worn, gently rubbed and bumped at edges with some toning showing on the interior. A charming, if albeit it now vintage, collection of stories and essays on aspects of English history, ranging from the obscure to the genuinely bizarre, manifested through psychical historic remains.ย  From follies to bridges, windmills to market crosses, Roman remains to prehistoric features, take a tour through some of the more obscure and opaque quirks of English history.
