A brief and largely pictorial record of the years that the publishing company George G Harrap was based in London's High Holborn. The introduction to the booklet says "The Company was large enough to need new premises again in 1935 and moved to 182 HighHolborn in the early part of that year, the building being formally opened by Winston Churchill on February 14th. 182 was damaged by fire during the war but remained the company's London office for forty-six years, until May 1981. Harrap's have now moved to the City of London...and this little booklet has been produced to commemorate the years we spent i High Holborn.".
