Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Good. 48 pages, 8 colour plates, 23 Black & White illustrations. Number 121 in the Britain in Pictures Series. The Britain in Pictures series, published by Collins beginning in 1941, was one of the most distinctive cultural undertakings of wartime Britain, an ambitious blend of education, morale-building, a…nd visual design. Conceived with support from the Ministry of Information, the series aimed to celebrate British identity through accessible, beautifully produced volumes that covered everything from literature, art, and architecture to trades, customs, and regional life. Britain in Pictures offered a humane and confident portrait of national character at a time of profound uncertainty, and remains a touchstone for collectors and historians interested in mid-century publishing, wartime propaganda, and the visual culture of resilience. Original printed covers, with dustwrapper. Size: 17 x 23 cms. Category: Britain in Pictures Series; This item may require more postage than the rates shown for delivery outside the UK.
