A note on what we sell: As books cover the entirety of human experience throughout the ages it is possible that some of what we sell will have imagery, views and/or language that is jarring to modern sensibilities. We will always endeavour to be sensitive to this fact in our approach to cataloguing and when presenting our books for sale. Our entire stock is available to view on our website at benedictwilsonbooks.co.uk…
