THE WORK OF SIR GILBERT SCOTT

First edition. Original black paper-covered boards with gilt titles to the spine, in the dustwrapper featuring the painting 'Pentonville Road and St Pancras Station' by J. O'Connor. Illustrated throughout with black and white photographs and diagrams. A very near fine copy, the binding square and firm, the extremities slightly rubbed. The contents, with the pencil ownership inscription of the renowned conservation architect Martin Stancliffe on the front free endpaper and slight toning to the text block edge, are otherwise clean throughout. Complete with the fine original dustwrapper that is without fading, loss or tears. Not price-clipped (£25 on the lower front flap).

A definitive account of the prolific work of the great Victorian architect Gilbert Scott, designer of St Pancras train station.
