Sobre este artículo
New York: Farrar & Rinehart, (1945). First Edition. Limited Edition Good in red cloth covered boards with a 1 inch deep closed tear to the cloth and underlying board at the lower edge of the front board, soiling across the face of the front board, light wear and rubbing to the cloth at the head and heel of the spine and with the cloth on the spine faded and soiled at the folds to the joints. There is also a prior owner's book plate on the fly title page and the remnants of a child's scribbling on the front end sheets. In a very good-, unclipped dust jacket with very shallow, minor chipping to the ends of the spine area, several archival tape repairs to the verso of the jacket particularly at the fold to the front flap where it was completely separated. And with 1/8" deep chips across more than 1/2 of the upper edge of the front panel. This is one of the Special Salinas Valley Edition copies which is identified as number 306 on the limitation page and which is signed by both the author and the illustrator. 316 pages including an index and bibliography. The 27th volume in The Rivers of America Series with illustrations by W. K. Fisher. As Carol Fitzgerald notes in her splendid bibliography of The Rivers of America, the number of copies of the special limited edition is unknown, but it is at least 801 as this dealer has seen a copy with that number. (Fitzgerald, Vol. 2, S33)
