Description: A fine clean First Edition copy of "The Island Race", by Winston Spencer Churchill, published by Cassell of London in 1964. A magnificent quarto volume of Sir Winston's own story of Britain, skilfully compressed from his four volume work A History of the English Speaking Peoples to form the most splendid account ever published of the people who, for the past two thousand years, have inhabited these sea walled islands. Here, accompanied for the first time by superb illustrations to match the grandeur of the text, is all the magic of Sir Winston's mastery of the English language, his unique comprehension of the long passage of Britain's turbulent history, his illuminating revelation of the developing genius of her people. "The Island Race" has been designed as a majestic volume to present, in impressive array, the hundreds of reproductions in color and monochrome of those historic paintings which have preserved for all time a contemporary view of the great events and the outstanding figures of Britain's history. Hard covers, large format, 312 pages. original dust jacket. Ref. TIRWSC/A5. FREE DELIVERY WITHIN MAINLAND UK : FULLY INSURED WORLDWIDE SHIPPING VIA ROYAL MAIL AIR FREIGHT.
