Sobre este artículo
New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1937. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good / Good. Will James. Large octavo, 9.4 in. x 7 in., pp. 91. First edition with "A" to copyright page. Illustrated with frontispiece color painting, three additional color prints, and many black and white ink drawings, all by the author. Blue-green cloth boards with dark blue title and cowboy lassoing a cow to front. Dark blue title to spine. Bottom corners lightly nudged. Age-toning to pages. Rubbing to dustjacket with several small closed tears, stains, and creases to dustjacket. CHips to top and bottom of spine. Billy is orphaned at the age of four when a steer gores his father. A year later, five-year-old Billy leaves his home ranch--the only life he has known--and strikes out across the land with Bopy, an old French-Canadian trapper. Will James's writing and his 25 pen-and-ink drawings capture a boy's view of the West at the turn of the twentieth century. (from Google Books).
