Sobre este artículo
New York: Macmillan, 1922. Later printing. Hardcover. Very good+. Large octavo, 538pp., illustrated. Very good or better in the publisher's dark blue cloth with gilt spine. Front inner hinge thinly cracked, but holding. Touch of rubbing to the edges, but a nice example. SIGNED and INSCRIBED by the author on the front free endpaper: "New York March 5, 1923. Dear Mr. Bannon: In this book you will find some description of the Bear Lake and Coppermine country in which you are interested. I would not advise a summer journey unless it can be extended into the winter. Vilhjalmur Stefansson." Bannon was briefly an Ohio congressman, and an enthusiast and collector of hunting and exploration books. An appealing copy with a lengthy inscription.

Sobre Cleveland Book Company
We are proud members of the ABAA.
As a small, independent bookseller in Cleveland, Ohio, I deal in general used, rare, and antiquarian books, autographs, manuscripts, pamphlets, and personal and family papers in all subjects. My family has been in the antiquarian book business since 1971. Are you moving, downsizing, or doing some spring cleaning? Did you inherit or otherwise come into some old books? Or, maybe you've collected modern novels from the last thirty or fifty years. No matter what kinds of books you have, we'd love to take a look at them! We travel throughout Ohio, western Pennsylvania and New York, southern Michigan, and eastern Indiana, and will travel farther in some cases to look at whole libraries or even just a few particularly interesting books. Give us a call at (216) 352-3940 and we can talk more about the kinds of books you have.
