About This Item
The Century Co., 1926. Hardcover. Very Good. Very good green cloth hardcover (no dust jacket) with gilt letter and illustraion shows touch of lean to spine and light bumping to corners, soil, light crease and bit of rubbing along spine, bookseller sticker at bottom of rear pastedown and some other very light trace wear. 328 pages with end paper maps and sketches and photographs by the author. Still a solid copy of this classic work of adventure by the Engish author that explores the Tahitian landscape.
