Description:
London: Sidgwick & Jackson Ltd, 1988 William Caxton who brought the printing industry to England was also an astute publisher. He made The Description of Britain available in 1480 by extracting the sections on Britain from a 14th century Middle English translation of the Latin Polychronicon and made it a best seller. His text has now been modernised and gloriously illustrated using woodcuts, engravings and illuminations from the period together with recent photographs and aerial views of contemporary Britain. Fascinating particularly the maps. 176 pages, colour and b/w.
