About this Item

Third edition enlarged. 116pp. Folded plan/map bound in at rear. British Library, Nat Library of Scotland and National Trust listed as having a copy of what I assume is the 1st/2nd edition with 104pp. Published by Gosnell. Oxford University, Nat Trust and Winchester College have the 4th edition with appendix. National Library of Scotland have a 1993 reprint of the 3rd edition enlarged. This copy have original buckram but front board is detached between Title and Advertisement by the Author. Chips to the top of spine and bottom.The folded map to rear is in very good clean condition. WHAT MAKES THIS COPY UNIQUE is the name to fep MAJOR DYNELEY. His personal copy. Major Dyneley fought at Waterloo. Later Lt. General Dyneley CB. I have not been able to find out if Major Dyneley was on the Staff. Is it possible that he is the author of the book? If so the value would increase considerably as it would then become a signed edition. The book would have to be insured.
