This product is sold as a CD SECOND or SPARE.
"CD seconds" or "spares" are perfectly good data wise, but have been put aside due to:
- faulty label printing, e.g. off colour or misaligned. A few have been manually labelled or corrected
- over-produced initially, so offered as "spares" to clear
They are all offered at 60% to 90% discount (from the normal price). They will be supplied in clear CD sleeves, rather than the normal CD cases. It is the last available, i.e. it won't be available, even at full price, when sold out.
A most important work on the County of Durham, which is referred to by most modern historians and writers.
Published in 1785 in three large volumes, the first of which begins with the pre-Roman history of the area, and the Brigantes tribe of the district, then on through the Saxon period, with the kingdoms of Bernicia and Deira. The remainder of the first volume takes us through the times of the Bishops of Lindisfarne and the Bishops of Durham, to the late 1700s.
Volumes 2 and 3 enter into greater detail concerning each of the towns and parishes of the county throughout history.
