Description: A nice copy overall . xv, 437 pp. Original green cloth, gilt titles, orange bull moose on front board. Full-page and in-text illustrations by Ernest Thompson Seton. There is a bit of wear to the tips of the spine with two very small quarter inch tears at the top. The spine has darkened slightly but overall a very clean bright copy. There is some foxing internally. This book belonged to my grandfather and he tipped in a small newspaper article of Seton on the fep along with Seton's picture. Obviously there is some browning to the pages as a result. Shame on him, he knew better than that; but still a nice copy.
