Splendid book of photos

If you're interested in England before WWII, this is a great book to add to your library. I'd been reading a lot of books about France and England in the 1930's, and saw this one for sale here, used, and bought it. This is primarily a book of photographs, and the pictures capture the way things were before the war, for Society at least, and you get the idea they didnt think their way of life was at all threatened by the changes happening in Germany. This is an old book, out of print, so the condition wont be great, but it doesnt much matter. Get a copy if you can. The one I bought was in average condition, but interestingly, it was signed by the author.
