The Face of London

Black Cloth. Near Fine/Good. New edition Revised. Hardback. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. 630 pages; illustrated with nearly 200 photos; from the dj: "This is an entirely new and up-to-date edition of a book that has been famous for many years, and without question it is the most comprehensive single-volume guide to the face of London that has ever been published. .This conspectus of London is truly an all-embracing encyclopaedia of the later history, geography and topography of the world's greatest city." Publication date is not given. I believe a probable publishing date is 1960, or early 60's, by indications in the text. Book condition: Dj edges show rubbing, wear and tear, particularly on and around the top edge and dj spine area. Owner's name and address are written in ink inside the front cover.
