Description: "This 10.5 x 13.75 inch, 93 page hardcover book with dust jacket is the 1960 printing of this title by the Sierra Club. This copy has the book in fine condition with a near fine dust wrapper. The brown cloth covers with silver lettering on front panel and spine show virtually no wear and the interior text pages again are in fine condition with just a touch of handling wear showing. The black-and-white photographs, with accompanying word poetry and description, all portray the Sierra Club's development of its Exhibit Format Series, which really "set the table" for the coffee-table-style pictorial book that today is very common. Ansel Adams provides the three-page forward about the life of Cedric Wright, mountain rambler and photographer who was a mainstay of Sierra Club activism. The dust wrapper does show some wear and one one-inch blue mark on the front panel and some spots on the rear panel but overall the wrapper is again near fine with only a touch of edge and folding wear showing. The wrapper is now protected by a mylar cover. The large inside wrapper flaps show a written piece by David Brower, who would soon become one of the most prominent American environmentalists and the rear flap shows advertising for another exhibit format series book. 93 pages."
