hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Publication: London, Adam and Charles Black, 1908 Formatting: Large crown 8vo, pp. [x], 208. Condition Report: Very Good. The publisher's original dark blue cloth is remarkably well-preserved, retaining sharp, unoxidised gilt and vibrant green Art Nouveau tooling to the front board and spine. There is some minor rubbing to the spine tips and extreme corners, but the cloth is otherwise exceptionally clean and bright. The binding remains tight and square, showing no signs of leaning. The top edge gilt is luminous, while the fore and bottom edges show expected, mild age-toning. Internally, the text block is predominantly clean and crisp, with only faint, occasional spotting to the preliminary leaves and margins. The colour plates remain vivid and free from offsetting. An exceptionally handsome copy. Catalogue Note: This first edition was issued as part of the publisher's famous 'Colour Books' series (specifically the 6s. net series). The volume features twenty-four exquisite full-page colour plates painted by landscape artist E. Harrison Compton, beautifully illustrating the Tyrolean Alps. The striking binding is a quintessential example of Edwardian publisher's cloth, featuring an elegant geometric Art Nouveau motif. Titles in this series, especially in such vibrant, well-preserved condition, are becoming increasingly uncommon on the open market, as they were often subjected to heavy handling or disbound by dealers for their plates. A captivating early twentieth-century journey through the majestic landscapes and vibrant culture of the Tyrolean Alps. Anglo-Austrian author W. A. Baillie-Grohman provides an intimate and authoritative portrait of the regionâ"its people, history, and rugged mountain life. His vivid prose is perfectly complemented by twenty-four stunning colour plates by renowned landscape artist E. Harrison Compton, capturing the sweeping valleys, towering dolomites, and charming alpine villages of Tyrol in breathtaking detail. This work remains a quintessential piece of Edwardian travel literature, appealing to both armchair travellers and alpine enthusiasts alike. E. Harrison Compton (illustrator).…
