CHURCHILL, Winston S. A History of the English-Speaking Peoples. Complete in Four Volumes. London: The Educational Book Company Ltd., 1956–1958. Complete four-volume set of Winston S. Churchill’s monumental history of Britain, the English-speaking world and the development of parliamentary and constitutional government. This is the attractive Chartwell Edition, issued by The Educational Book Company Ltd., and here present in first printings. The four volumes comprise: Volume I: The Birth of Britain Volume II: The New World Volume III: The Age of Revolution Volume IV: The Great Democracies Bound in the publisher’s original navy blue leatherette, decorated in gilt to the spines, with red spine title panels and gilt lettering. The upper boards are lettered in gilt with the individual volume titles. Title pages printed in black and red. Printed and bound by The Ferndale Book Company, London and Ferndale, Glamorgan. The Chartwell Edition is one of the most attractive collected editions of Churchill’s historical works. It was produced on heavier paper than the trade edition and includes internal photographic illustrations. It was issued as a handsome mail-order edition and is now increasingly sought after by Churchill collectors. Condition: Complete in four volumes. Original navy blue leatherette bindings with gilt decoration and red spine labels. Bindings firm and square. Contents clean and bright throughout, with light age toning to page edges. Some light spotting to page edges. Boards show light rubbing, surface marks and shelf wear. The spine of Volume II is more noticeably faded and rubbed than the others, with some loss/rubbing to the gilt and red spine label. Other volumes remain bright and presentable, with attractive gilt. No dust jackets; the Chartwell Edition was issued with plain glassine wrappers, which are not present here. A clean, solid and very presentable complete set. A handsome first-printing set of Churchill’s History of the English-Speaking Peoples in the desirable Chartwell Edition. Please examine the photographs carefully, as they form part of the description. Additional photographs are available on request.…
