Portal to Paradise - An Italian Excursion by Cecil Robetrts | Published by Hodder & Stoughton 1955.
There have been many publications of this book, but I have been lucky enough to grt a hold of a first edition.
The book is one of the first blogs of it's kind! Cecil Roberts writes about his experience travelling through Italy.
In very good vintage condition. The pages are tanned, as is to be expected from a book that is 80 years old. However, the spine is solid with all pages in tact and still remain crisp. The cover is hardback.
With beautiful covers, aged pages and timeless stories, vintage books make for beautiful gifts. Holding a small bit of history in your hands, they offer a glimpse into the last and gives the opportunity to read the literature in their original form.
A lovely gift for a book or travel lover.
