With a two-page foreword by A. Kerr Clarkson. ***Very good in orange cloth-covered boards with black titles to the spine and front board.

Edges of boards slightly rubbed but no bumps or creases, except for light creasing to the top and tail of the spine. Corners sharp. No reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. There is some rippling to the cloth over the back board where the book must have been affected by water at some stage (also affecting the dustwrapper lightly). Page block edges clean with none of the usual foxing. Internally near fine with no inscriptions. No creases or tears. Black and white map illustrated front and rear free endpapers showing: Celtic Northumberland, Roman Northumberland, Saxon Northumberland and Norman Northumberland respectively. Pages clean with no foxing - printed on thick paper. ***In a good colour illustrated dustwrapper, which has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of 15/-. Whilst largely complete, there are some areas of loss at the top and tail of the spine, and a closed tear at the top edge of the front panel with associated creasing. Edges of dustwrapper creased, nicked and rubbed. Very small loss and small tears to the corner tips of the dustwrapper. There is a long closed tear to the fore-edge of the front flap foldover. There is also some rippling to the back panel of the dustwrapper where the book must have been affected by water at some stage.
