GREENE Dorothy
Roman Yorkshire. The Ricknild Street [The Route across Brinsworth Common, near Rotherham]. AUTHOR'S PRESENTATION COPY WITH T.L.s TO I D MARGARY
8vo., with 2 plates, and full-page map and 2 plans in the text; printed wrappers, wire-stitched as issued, a fine copy. A PRESENTATION COPY FROM THE AUTHOR TO I MD MARGARY WITH A T.L.S FROM THE FORMER ADDRESSED TO MARGARY AT YEW LODGE. The letter, painfully respectful in tone, brings to Margary's attention Greene's mapping of Ricknild to the south of Templebrough Fort and asks whether this information might be considered in the 'grand old man's' revision of Codrington [which revision became his magnum opus 'Roman Roads in Britain']. Reprinted from the 'Yorkshire Archaeological Journal', part 149. Ivan Donald Margary (1896-1976) was the twentieth century's leading authority on Roman roads in Britain, devising a structured numbering system to ease identification. Among his many studies are 'Roman Ways of the Weald' (1948) and the definitive 'Roman Roads in Britain (2 vols., 1955-57). Bonser 2383.

Pavia, 1929, 8vo stralcio con copertina posticcia muta, pp. 316/362 con 3 figure. - !! ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo di rivista, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perchè ci è sconosciuta. - !! ATTENTION !!: : NOT A BOOK : “estratto” or “stralcio” means simply a few pages, original nonetheless, printed in a magazine. Pages are indicated as in "from” “to", for example: 229/231 means the text comprises three pages (229, 230 and 231). If the magazine that contained the pages is not mentioned, it is because it is unknown to us.
