Readers Union and Oxford University Press, London, 1964. The first 14 volumes. Each volume written by a respected authority for the study of that era; Index and fold-out maps (if any for that volume) at the end of each book; other maps, charts. Lacking dustjackets. A trifle foxed on some end papers and preliminary blanks, Else Fine octavos in brown cloth with gilt spine titles; clean in tight binding. Uncommon in a consecutive, chronological run, and desirable as an incomparable reference notwithstanding the absence of the 15th volume available at the time of this edition which dealt with the years 1914-1945.

Titles of each book, in order: Roman Britain and the English Settlements; Anglo-Saxon England. c. 550-1087; From Domesday Book to Magna Carta. 1087-1216; The Thirteenth Century. 1216-1307; The Fourteenth Century. 1307-1399; The Fifteenth Century. 1399-1485; The Earlier Tudors. 1485-1558; The Reign of Elizabeth. 1558-1603; The Early Stuarts. 1603-1660; The Later Stuarts. 1660-1714; The Whig Supremacy. 1714-1760; The Reign of George III; The Age of Reform. 1815-1870; and England. 1870-1914.
