Sobre este artículo
Chicago: Rhodes & McClure Publishing Company, 1909. A famous memoir of the American west, first published in 1888. This is a Very Good (Minus) copy of a reprint edition. Dark green cloth binding with a rather spectacular decoration of a cowboy and his horse in silver within a floral border. More florality and lettering on the spine. Clean text; 471 pages, with 19 pages of publisher adverts in the rear. Profusely illustrated with woodcuts throughout. This is a popular edition, and the cheap wood-pulp paper is heavily tanned. The hinges are cracked, leading to a shaken feel. A decent-enough reading copy; but rather a common title since it was reprinted so many times, and probably not worth repair work.. Reprint Edition. Decorative Cloth. Very Good (Minus)/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
