Goodall, John S. | The story of an English village

Relié couverture rigide pleine toile / Hardcover ; Jaquette illustrée en couleurs ; illustrated in color jacket ; Illustrations en couleurs sur double page avec demi page altérant la scène / Illustrated throughout in colour with detailed drawings and an ingenious half page that alters the scene ; Very good shape and clean contents ; Livre en anglais ; English books ; chronicle the changes that overtake an English village as it develops from a clearing in Medieval times to a bustling modern town. The road, which becomes a street and the house on its corner, both inside and out, are seen from the same viewpoint at intervals of roughly a century. The result is a wordless but marvellously vivid lesson in social history for all ages. (18H4)"
