Soft cover. Zustand: Good. 1st Edition. Wandering through the countryside of West Sussex, about fifty miles to the south west of London, is to discover a corner of England that appears supremely untroubled and at ease with itself. The rhythms of life here seem finely tuned, the pace is slow and a reverence for the past, and for what is accepted as tradition, dictates the forms and textures of the social present. For in this rolling, green and pleasant land, history is constantly restored, renewed and reinvented. Not only as a model of taste and respectability but also as an emblem of resistance against (what is perceived to be) other less stable realities played out elsewhere in contemporary Britain.

paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
