Seller's Description:
Very Good. No Jacket. 12mo-over 6¾"-7¾" tall. The Irish historian Patrick Weston Joyce (1827-1914) is best known for his research into the origin of irish place names; he also was an educator, helping to organize the National School system. Although popular and respected, his works tend toward the uncommon. Here is a Very Good copy of a Later Printing from the Irish Educational Company, possibly intended for school use. Red cloth decorative binding with black ruling and Celtic designs on the front cover. Titling on the spine in black. Clean text; ix, 344 pages, indexed (with a short Supplementary Index). Contemporary (1929) gift inscription on the FFEP. The paste-downs are tanned, with offset to the endpapers; other than that the textblock is nicely bright. Mildly bumped on the corners; spine slightly faded, although the lettering remains clear.
