About this copy
This is a first edition, first printing hardcover, identified by the full number line (10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1) on the copyright page and no subsequent reprint statement. Taylor's book was the first major reassessment in over twenty years of the Allied bombing of Dresden, drawing on archives only accessible after the fall of the East German regime. The book is bound in publisher's cloth boards with a maroon endpaper design, and is housed in its original price-clipped-free dust jacket, printed at £20.00, featuring wartime aerial bombing photography on the front panel.
Condition
- Book
- Very Good – boards and text block appear clean and sound in the photographs, with no inscriptions or markings noted.
- Dust jacket
- Good – shows chipping and wear at the spine ends and corners, with some edge rubbing to the top edge.
This is a pre-owned book, and minor age-related wear may be present beyond what is specifically mentioned. All readily visible defects have been described to the best of my ability. Please see photos, which form part of the description.
