Sobre este artículo
New York: Thomas Y Crowell and Co, 1956. first edition. hardcover. Book VG+: mild foxing to endpapers, mild signs of shelf wear, else clean, square, tight, unmarked./DJ VG-: chipping/edge wear, age toning, NOT clipped ($3.50). Donald McKay. 8vo 242pp. from front flap: "Of Whales and Women is at the same time a history of Nantucket from the whaling days of great derring-do and a warm personal memoir of many happy summers spent there by the Gilbreth (Cheaper by the Dozen) clan. It is an account, too, of Nantucket today, where the chief occupation is harpooning tourists rather than whales. Since Frank Gilbreth is teh author, the book abounds in untrammeled fun and wit, salty anecdotes, and the feeling of kinship of a large, lively, and loving family." #01543.
