About this Item

A beautifully illustrated work on Surrey, written by A. R. Hope Moncrieff, with colour illustrations by Sutton Palmer. In the publisher's original pictorial cloth binding. Third edition. First published in 1906. Written by the Scottish author, Ascott Robert Hope Moncrieff. Moncrieff penned several works on myths, legends, travel and more. A charming exploration of the county as Moncrieff follows the course of an excursion in several directions: down the Wey; up the Mole; to Roman Road; and so forth. A true appreciation of Surrey. With seventy five stunning full page colour plates by English watercolour landscape painter, Harold Sutton Palmer, as well as a folding map to the rear. Collated, complete. An excellent example of this early printing. In the publisher's original pictorial cloth binding. Externally, smart, with light bumping and rubbing to the extremities. A touch of fading to the spine. The occasional mark, mainly to the rear board. Internally, generally firmly bound. Pages bright and clean. One very small closed tear to the head of the folding map. Collated complete. Very Good.
