Prospects of England: Two Thousand Years Seen Through Twelve English Towns - Adam Nicolson
Prospects of England: Two Thousand Years Seen Through Twelve English Towns, by Adam Nicolson and Peter Morter, published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson in 1989.
This hardback explores twelve English towns, including Chichester, Glastonbury, Alnwick, Chipping Campden, Woodbridge, Blandford Forum, Monmouth, Weymouth, Buxton, Whitby, Hebden Bridge and Letchworth, illustrated throughout with line drawings of buildings and streets alongside the text, including a reproduction of William Gardner's 1769 plan of Chichester.
The cover shows a sepia-toned illustrated cityscape with a church spire, and the dust jacket carries some light toning and marking, particularly to the upper edge. The spine panel is intact with clear lettering. The back panel lists the twelve towns alongside the illustration and barcode. Internally, the pages sampled show clean, clear print with illustrations reproduced sharply, and no foxing or marks are visible on the leaves photographed.
