54pp, with maps and numerous, stunning monochrome plates reproducing photographs of Mont-Saint-Michel. In stiff card wrappers (chipped and scuffed at spine tips). There's a previous owner's gift inscription on the half-title page; and some mild browning at page edges, not affecting images. The binding is a little fragile. In its original glassine dust wrapper, now browned and fragile. Large 4to. A stunning photography record of Mont-Saint Michel, a magic island in Normandy topped by an Abbey, with a brief commentary (in French and English) on the history of the site.
