Price: US$25.00 + shipping

Condition: Good

Description: Bound in pictorial buckram cloth. Hardcover. Good binding and cover. Library stamps and markings. Shelf wear. "Originally published in 1923, Salten's story is more somber than the adaptations that followed it. Life in the forest is dangerous and precarious, and Bambi learns important lessons about survival as he grows to become a strong, heroic stag. It explores the tensions that Salten experienced in his own life, as a hunter who also loved animals, and as an Austrian Jew who sought acceptance in Viennese society even as he faced persecution." - Princeton University Press

"Bambi" is often heralded as the first environmental novel. It served as the basis for the 1942 Disney movie, which was heavily modified from the original novel. (The American Film Institute listed the movie as the third best film of all time in the animation genre. ) "Bambi" became a Book-of-the-Month selection and sold 650,000 copies in the United States by 1942.
