Internals very clean and free of any markings, no creases. Willard Espy's memoir is delightful, filled with memorable characters, with no celebrities, from his family trove of people over the centuries, from witches in Salem, Massachusetts, to pioneer oystermen on the Pacific coast of Washington state. Drawing on conversations with aged relations and friends, on historic letters and documents, Willard Espy reconstructs his own personal past to provide an account of his family that was born, grew up, and died, as the United States was being born, shaped, formed, explored, expanded. Text of book is set in Caledonia; paper used for text is Hammermill Offset. Designed by Ladislav Svatos. 300 pages. 10.1 x 6.75 inches. Clarkson N Potter Publishers, New York, 1977.
