About This Item
Very Good + Book . Fine internally , Small bump to front board.
After being out of circulation for 100 years, Forest of Dean Stone Firms is proud to publish a limited edition print of this beautiful piece of stone history. Lovingly remastered, the book explores the natural stone industry as it was 100 years ago and offers readers a glimpse into the quarries in the early 19th century, both in the Forest of Dean and around the UK. Nick Horton and Marcus Scott Russell, joint owners of Forest of Dean Stone Firms, were keen to maintain the complete integrity of the original print so the copies contain only exceptionally minimal changes, remaining almost entirely as it was a hundred years ago. They have, however, added some wonderful personal touches, including handwritten numbering, a new graphical icon designed to commemorate the 1912-2012 centenary added to the spine and a personal foreword from Marcus detailing how the stone business, as we know it today, has transformed and shaped his family through the generations.
Includes pasted in Letter on fep about Book from Marcus Scott Russell.

About greaves-leaves
I am an independent retired individual who has specific interests in History, particularly local History and relevant scarce books. Many of the books for sale are from the collection I have built over the years. I do not operate as a business and spend a few hours a week on my hobby. However being retired I am usually available to service orders promptly and personally.
