898 pages; Fine/Very Good. Published apparently in the 1950's. Complete and Unabridged in Three Volumes - this is Volume Three ONLY. No Copyright date. Attractive red on black boards with gilt lettering and illustration. Boards are straight, tips are pointed, spine is square and pages are clean. DJ has tiny closed tears to edges with tiny chipping. Just a tiny bit of shelf rub to edges. Now in protective sleeve. An excellent gift! Gibbon is one of those few writers who holds as high a place in the history of literature as in the roll of historians. He is the clearest example that brilliance of style and accuracy of statement are perfectly compatible in an historian. Gibbon's work, completed a hundred and fifty years ago, remains today the last and authoritative word on the subject.
