The Land of Little Rain: by Mary Austin
Houghton and Company 1903- First edition in original green cloth with gilt and ink to boards
Book is crisp and clean in original cloth which is bright. Only moderate shelf wear, some light loss to corners, light staining and soling and a previous owner bookplate and gift inscription. VERY GOOD

Sinopsis
A stunning tribute to the savage beauty of the area known as Death Valley. To most travelers it is a parched, empty territory, unwelcoming and forgiving. In a collection of essays that date back almost a century, naturalist and writer Mary Austin (1868-1934) breathes life into the desert landscape, describing its savage beauty, its plants and animals, and the occasional human visitor.
