William Zuill — Bermuda Journey: A Leisurely Guidebook

Hamilton, Bermuda, The Bermuda Book Stores, 1958. Cloth. A fascinating, signed history of Bermuda, illustrated, with several folding maps, and neatly presented in the original dust wrapper. Fourth impression.   In the publisher's original cloth binding, with the original, unclipped dust wrapper.   Signed by the author with an inscription to the half-title page, dated 1961.   Illustrated throughout, including with a frontispiece, by Scott White, and featuring ten maps, eight of which are folding, by Will Onions and Val Bouchard. Collated, complete.   A lovely, intellectual guide to the history, landscape, politics, attractions and general topography of the North Atlantic, British-occupied island of Bermuda. Written by William Zuill, a passionate local historian and author and the first director of the Bermuda National Trust. In the publisher's original cloth binding, with the original, unclipped dust wrapper. Signed by the author with an inscription to the half-title page, dated 1961. Externally, smart with slight bumping and rubbing, resulting in minor loss of cloth to spine head, tail and tips, and a few light marks. Dust wrapper noticeably discoloured with signficant edge wear, culminating in a number of chips, most prominent to the top edge, and further loss of paper to the front joint and fore edge. Wraps also feature the odd mark and spot, including a couple of faint tide marks. Internally, firmly bound. Bright and clean with minor spotting, mainly contained to the first and last few pages. Very Good . Ill.: Scott White; Will Onions; Val Bouchard. Very Good/Good.
