About This Item
First edition. No dust jacket. Cover of pale green fabric printed with green text and green and yellow decoration on the front and spine, showing little wear, other than some darkening over the spine. The book leads off with a number of decorative pages, including the endpapers. There is a hinge split after the title page, as shown in photo #6. This is not uncommon. There is not a corresponding split in the rear. The rest of the pages are clean, tight and unmarked. Set in California, this book contains some of the descriptions of nature that Stratton-Porter is well known for. It also contains a heavy dose of anti-Asian racism, which she had not been previously known for. No illustrations other than the frontispiece. A fairly rare book.

Many of my books are oversized. Rather than ask for shipping adjustments at the time of purchase, the list price for heavier books includes the excess shipping cost.
