Comprising Domesday Book Studies, Introduction and Translation, and Folios and Maps. Number 373 of a limited press of one thousand copies. Domesday Book, now held at The National Archives, Kew, in South West London, is the record of the great survey of much of England and parts of Wales completed in 1086. The survey was executed for William I of England (William the Conqueror): “While spending the Christmas time of 1085 in Gloucester, William had deep speech with his counsellors and sent men all over England to each shire to find out what or how much each landholder had in land and livestock, and what it was worth”. Illustrated throughout with facsimile reproductions of pages from the original Domesday Book, though missing the two folding coloured maps of Britain and Sussex. Complete in three volumes. In cloth bindings with presentation slipcase. Externally smart, though lightly bumped in places, and some slight dampstaining to one front board. Slipcase has a few marks and some light rubbing but is otherwise smart. Pages are bright and clean. Fine – Very well preserved copy showing very little wear. Only one or two minor faults, really a very attractive copy. Quite a wide term meaning no major faults but probably several smaller ones. Often expected given the age of the book, but still a respectable copy. Meaning not very good. Some more serious faults as will. Be described in the condition report under’condition. Good Only – Meaning one or more faults that could really do with repair. As with good only above but with other faults. Leaving a compromised copy even after repair. Really bad and possibly seriously incomplete. We only sell books in this condition where their rarity or value makes them. Attractive none the less. Major defects will be described. Please ask for details and conditions. Please note we cannot accept USD cheques.
