Astra Castra: Experiments and Adventures in the Atmosphere
Book Description
Rebound in resplendent half crushed morocco with marbled boards, gilt titles & raised bands. The contents ex Blackburn Public Library. Externally lovely, with the lightest discolouration to leather & bumping to extremities. Internally with ex library stamps. Leaves a touch age-toned and spotted, with some handling marks throughout. A fascinating and unusual Victorian history of aerospace exploration across the globe, this a beautifully bound example.
