Descrizione

xvi, 473, 6 (ads) pages. Many black and white illustrations. Reprint of the 1886 first edition. The author's intention with this work was "to portray in word, and by brush and pencil, the life and country of Alaska as it is, so clearly and so truthfully, that the reader may draw his or her own inference, just as though he or she stood upon the ground itself." - from Introduction. Publisher's black cloth very handsomely adorned with gilt lettering and red and yellow illustration. Writing and large sticker scar inside front board. Lacking back free endpaper and map which was affixed there. Moisture stains to bottom edge of all pages - text unaffected. Hinges open. Binding open in two places. Prior owner's blind stamps. Despite these many issues, still an outwardly attractive reference copy. Arctic Bibliography 4545, Wickersham 2372. Book
