Churchill (W.S): Marlborough His Life and Times. [Two-Volume Edition] , Harrap, [1947]

2 vols., 8vo., First Edition thus, with 2 portrait frontispieces, 14 facsimiles and 196 maps and plans (a number double-page) in the text, some light offsetting to free endpapers; original buckram, Marlborough arms blocked in gilt on upper boards, gilt backs, maroon tops, a very good, bright, clean tight set. This first two-volume edition is an entirely new setting (not merely a rearrangement) of the original four-volume edition of 1933-34. It is unabridged and retains all the maps and plans of the first edition, but the illustrations are reduced to the two frontispieces. Scarce in this condition. Woods A40(d); ICS A40(d).
