Description: London: Lander Westall & co, 1908. First edition (hardback). 8vo (21cm by 14cm), 263pp, 1pp erraata, xxiii (index). Frontispiece and 24 plates, but lacks the map. Original brown cloth, gilt titling to the front board and the spine. A label has been removed from the foot of the spine, taking some of the cloth covering with it, there is some scuffing of the endpapers, and pp 5/6 are torn (and repaired). Nonetheless, the book is tightly bound, and the contents are clean, and this copy is in fair to good condition overall. A rare and important work on the history of British Inland Waterways - inter alia, this book details the condition of individual waterways at the date of publication (1908).
