Both titles in the original cloth and jackets. Very Fine condition. The first title unused and still in the protective plastic wrapper, a few light bumps, the jacket of the second volume lightly rolled. Two useful, out of print and sought after volumes, the first especially useful for the exceptionally well researched historical text.
