Ascherson, Neal - Black Sea - ( Item 139232 )
Published in London by Folio Society. 2011. First Printing. Fine Hardback. No inscriptions or bookplates. Near Fine slipcase. Very slight marks to slipcase. Updated foreword by the author. Three-quarter-bound in buckram with a Modigliani paper side. Printed with a view of the Bosphorus. Set in Minion. 304 pages. Frontispiece. 16 pages of colour and black & white illustrations. Book size: 9.5× 6.25 ins. 'Like the terminal moraine of a glacier, the Black Sea shore is a place where the detritus of human migrations and invasions has been deposited for more than four thousand years'. Ascherson combines a personal narrative with a historian's insight, in a lyrical and philosophical examination of the place where 'civilisation' met 'barbarism'; trader encountered nomad, and different worlds collided. He ends this thoughtful book with the physical state of the Black Sea – the beluga, anchovy, sturgeon and dolphins, which once abounded, have fallen to record lows. It may be the ecological story, and not the human, which proves the final tragedy. ISBN: B0080267RU .
