Description
New York: The Derrydale Press, 1939. Limited Edition. #853 of 950 copies. Bound in green faux snakeskin titled in gilt to spine and front board. Lacking the publisher's box. 297pp. Strong and handsome, very light wear, gilt on front board perhaps a trifle dulled; internally clean and fresh, largely unopened, illustrated throughout. A very good, handsome copy indeed, unfortunately lacking the box. An evocative and widely appreciated account of all varieties of game hunting in the American South West, and Mexico. Considered one of the more unusual and desirable Derrydale Press sporting books, with its rather idiosyncratic binding choice.
