### Highways & Byways in GLOUCESTERSHIRE by Edward Sutton 1932 First Edition ### ## THIS BOOK: Classified as NEAR FINE: This is the 1932 edition. This first edition was the 32 publication in the series ## ## TA beautifully preserved first edition from Macmillan?s celebrated Highways & Byways series, this 1932 volume invites readers on a richly illustrated journey through Gloucestershire?s towns, villages, and countryside. Written by Edward Hutton, the 32nd title in the series blends historical insight, local lore, and architectural charm with over 115 evocative illustrations by Hugh Thomson?each capturing a moment in time that may never be seen again. Bound in original blue cloth with bright gilt titling to spine and cover, this copy is classified as Near Fine. The top edge is coloured blue, and the outer edges remain clean. Minor bumping to corners and spine ends is present, but the binding is sound and the text block is clean and clear throughout. The fold-out map of Gloucestershire is intact and correctly folded?a rare survival after 90 years. Thomson?s illustrations elevate the book beyond mere guidebook, offering a visual archive of Gloucestershire?s changing landscape. Hutton?s prose is both informative and engaging, covering everything from Roman roads and medieval churches to local legends and flora. The book encourages readers to trace the subjects of each drawing in real life, making it a companion for both armchair explorers and field wanderers. Part of a 36-volume series published between 1898 and 1948, Highways & Byways in Gloucestershire remains a favourite among collectors of regional British history. A fine addition to any topographical library or a thoughtful gift for those with ties to the county. ### INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Please Note. FREE SHIPPING IS UK ONLY.
