Written at the age of 27, it nevertheless contains many valuable observations and insights, which make it a worthwhile read. This book contains a modernized text, which is easier palatable for today's readers, than Hope's somewhat verbose original.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"William Hope","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45967904276641,"sku":"9783033110557","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0462\/1120\/3233\/files\/yvy5vjp-front-shortedge-384.jpg?v=1777278170","url":"https:\/\/bookswholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/the-compleat-fencing-master","provider":"BooksWholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
