Description:
Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. Paperback. xxxviii, 309p., softbound illustrated solely with five skimpy line maps (a 1998 reprint may be better-furnished), anyway, theoretical cartography by a scholar of African history who had taught in Zambia, later doing research made possible by a Carter G. Woodson Institute fellowship. Thornton builds on Fernand Braudel's Mediterranean studies (who he says insufficiently valued Africa's role).

Cleveland: Bloch and Company, 1950. Hardcover. 61p., maps as called for exhibited fullpage and in colors (the colorwork is odd, perhaps a Bloch family choice). Hardbound in aquagreen cloth boards gilt and enclosed in its dust jacket. Book itself has badly toned endpapers, and an ownership bookplate has been laid over both dj and pastedown, fastening the one to the other (rear of dj is free, and we have inspected for flaws). There's some ownership pencilling near the bookplate, the dust jacket is dusty and edgeworn, item is otherwise sound and clean.

Description:
Metuchen NJ: Mini-Print Corporation, 1967. Hardcover. Unpaginated, the multi-volume corpus reproduced with admirable clarity, nine pages to one page of this edition. Mini-Print did well by this task but a good strong magnifying glass will be needed. Item is hardbound in cinnamon-brown cloth boards spine-titled, it has a faded spine panel (external titling barely legible), is slightly dished and also yawns a little, hinges are sound, no ownership or any other markings, a good copy into which are laid leaves of a 6p. AB Bookman's Weekly article (by one Joel Silver) on Evans and his huge project.

Description:
Louvain / Paris: Editions Nauwelaerts, 1964. Paperback. xxviii, 149p., period illustrations on inserted coated stock, a softbound enclosed in a utilitarian library casing of black buckram boards, gilt titled. Ex library with a prim bookplate to pastedown and, below it, the library's withdrawal (item "removed") notice. Signatures opened neatly by hand throughout. Insertion into a casebinding has caused slight damage to titlepage of the original paperback, the binder's glue picked up first three letters of authorial credit (i.e., the Jea of Jean. Trivial, but an irritant to the eye. Otherwise a very satisfactory reading copy: unmarked except for the small labels on pastedown, entirely clean, and quite sound if slightly uglified.
