A propos de cet article

A superb copy in excellent condition of the very rare first edition (1932) of Beaumont's radical investigation into how cometary impacts and "Space Weather" have shaped Earth's history, geology, and civilizations. In doing so he weaves into the mix catastrophism, predictive intent, the spiritual and historical context, all in a bid to uncover a unified science theory connecting history, geology, meteorology and astronomy. A fascinating early example of radical subversive Earth theories. As such Beaumont was of course a huge influence on many later related writers including Von Daniken, (especially) Velikovsky and Hancock. And this book almost certainly was his most influential in the filed of pseudo-scientific theory which captured the imagination of the time. Book is in excellent condition. Pages are bright and clean: incredibly no inscriptions, markings, notes or tanning at all. In the few first editions we have seen it is prone to foxing and spotting, but this one is completely clean. Very hard to imagine a better copy exists. Pages are crisp and perfectly aligned. All of the many illustrations are present and correct. Index and bibliography is complete and there are many pages of excellent contemporary Rider & Co related book adverts to rear (some are present in the photos). Spine and binding are excellent. This is the true first: green boards with gilt lettering to spine. Lettering is bright and clear. Boards are firm and square with no real crumpling to corners. A slight rectangular darkening to front cover, but otherwise an immaculate copy. See photos, all of which are of the actual book for sale we don't use stock photos. More photos available, just ask, thanks.…
