Sobre este artículo
The Macmillan Company, New York, 1959. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. Inscribed on the front free endpaper: "For Dear Mother Whitney, with much love, Pieter." Uncommon signed. A collection of essays selected from those that Fosburgh wrote as the founding editor of *The Conservationist*, the official publication of the New York State Conservation Department. It explores the wildlife and rural life of New York and one particular "Forest Preserve" and along the way "reveals a fresh philosophical attitude toward conservation." He was also the president of the North Woods Club in the Adirondacks, a group dedicated to conservation. See Fosburgh's obituary in The New York Times on March 7, 1978. A near fine book with a hint of soiling to board edges in a very good jacket on account of some sunning to spine and a damp stain to lower corner of spine. // Wood (+) River (=) Books specializes in ecology, natural history, nature writing, the environment, and environmental literature, with a special passion for association copies and notable inscriptions.

Sobre Rural Hours
Rural Hours (formerly Wood + River = Books, est. 2019) specializes in ecology, natural history, nature writing, the environment, environmental literature, and contemporary essay, with a special passion for association copies and notable inscriptions. We draw our name from the popular-but-then-forgotten book by Susan Fenimore Cooper (published in 1850), generally considered the first work of environmental creative nonfiction by a woman in the U.S. We are interested in challenging and expanding the canon of environmental literature and finding books that tell remarkable stories and illuminate the tradition of writing about place and natural history.
