THIS BEAUTIFUL BOOK IS A PRODUCTION FROMTHE FOLIO SOCIETY, a British firm that was founded more than 70 years ago to produce edition s ofthe world's great literature in a top quality format that matched their contents. BEAUTIFUL BOOK TAKES US BACK TO LIFE IN THE MIDDLE AGES THIS BEAUTIFUL BOOK IS A PRODUCTION FROM THE FOLIO SOCIETY , a British firm that was founded more than 70 years ago to produce editions of the world's great literature in a top quality format that matched their contents. Since then, The Folio Society has lived up to its goal and its books - great fiction as well as nonfiction - are collected avidly around the world by readers who want books of real quality and typically majestic appearance. The books are usually issued in custom-made slip cases that add to the value to the books. This is a good example of a Folio edition. Issued in 1999, it is a reproduction of an acclaimed work by the English writer and historian Eileen Power (1889-1940) who specialized in Medieval studies and who was famous for combining deep research with a fluid and easy writing style. Using diaries, official documents, letters and other sources, she traces the lives of six people during the Middle Ages - some ordinary, some famous - and tells us how they lived their lives. It is a riveting read. THE BOOK AND ITS SLIP CASE ARE IN FINE CONDITION and they make an impressive appearance on a private bookshelf, perhaps sparking off a new collection of Folios which are widely available in the used book market as well as new. The book appears to be unread and its pages are crisp and clean, the binding firm and square. Protected by the slip case, the cover corners are not bumped. There are no signs of previous ownership. It is a fine copy.
