Historical Atlas of Central Europe: Revised and Expanded Edition

Seattle: University of Washington Press, 2002. Flat, uncreased spine. A solid reading / reference copy but rated only Good because something, perhaps coffee, was spilled leaving a light brown discoloration in part of the book's outer margin (along the fore-edge). NO maps are affected. Almost no text is affected either, except in the index where the discoloration reaches a few words on several pages and many words on the last page of the index. NOT as bad as it sounds -- PHOTOS UPON REQUEST. Oversize Softcover. 9" wide by 12" tall. This large, heavy book may require extra postage for International shipments, but only the standard charge for priority or media mail.
