A fine copy in like slipcase, with only a couple of small spots of wear to the protruding extremities which inevitably rub slightly against the slipcase. We have handled quite a few copies of the two editions in this series (Herodotus' The Histories and Thucydides' The Peloponnesian War), and we have yet to find one that shows zero wear; their slipcases are usually just a tad too tight.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sancho's Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55003363672403,"sku":null,"price":560.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/5403\/5283\/files\/The-Peloponnesian-War-THUCYDIDES-Nick-Hayes-FOLIO-SOCIETY-Limited-Edition-2023_4_87147489-1409-4dc9-93ba-184d9fe6ae90.webp?v=1789923654","url":"https:\/\/sanchosrarebooks.co.uk\/products\/the-peloponnesian-war-thucydides-folio-society-signed-limited-edition-2023-2","provider":"Sancho's Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
