Unlike many other fashion histories, this big book doesn't rush through prehistory - there is a lot of material here and photos of artifacts that help us understand prehistory. The book extends up to 1983, sorted chronologically but also by region. Sculptures, paintings, and other art is used throughout to accompany the detailed text in this oversized volume. VG condition, jacket is intact, previous owner's bookplate inside front cover. Harry N. Abrams, Inc. NY. 1983. Hb, Dj. USED. $25.00
