This is a beautifully illustrated 2nd edition of "The University Atlas" by George Goodall and H.C. Darby, printed in 1940 by George Philip and Son Ltd. The pages are filled with detailed maps and interesting historical information..The blue hardback covers are a tad worn and scuffed along the edges and gutter..the internal pages are lightly tanned  with a touch of foxing in places ..The illustrations are still nice fresh and sharp
