Sobre este item
Canada: University of Toronto Press, 1968. Book. Good. Hardcover. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. 344 pages. Index. Bibliography. Glossary. References. Black and white illustrations. "In a single century man freed himself from the dark and changed his pattern of work and leisure. This is the first detailed story of the technological revolution in North America. It is told in the setting of the Canadian home, but the developing technology of lighting was common to both sides of the border, thus this book is of equal importance to collectors and historians in the United States." - from dust jacket. Light wear to book which is clean and unmarked but for gift greetings atop front free endpaper. Slight lean to spine. Dust jacket heavily worn but we've made a few cosmetic touches and preserved it in a new archival-quality Brodart cover. Overall a sound copy..
