Description: Signed by all three authors on the colophon, a limited edition of 100. Made of double-fold sheets sewn (Japanese stab-binding) into soft, handmade violet paper laced with marigold petals. It is contained in a folding case of evergreen cloth boards with fibrous interior endpaper and a bone clasp. Only a few distractions on this otherwise fine copy: The bone clasp doesn t stay very well in its loop, one m in Community on the spine s label is missing where a small flower petal seems to have fallen off, and the underlying flap of the case has created a faint impression on the cover of the booklet (probably true of all copies). Classic essays on environment, people, and community: Gary Snyder's "Coming Into the Watershed," Wendell Berry's "Conserving Communities, and Carole Korda's "Dancing in the Borderland" (Koda was Snyder's third wife). With an introduction by Tom Lyon. The regular edition consisted of an additional 700 unsigned copies without the folding case. An exquisite item, one of the finest of Snyder's limited editions. Wendell Berry and Gary Snyder are of course great friends and correspondents, and their letters are collected in Distant Neighbors (Counterpoint 2015). Please inquire for photos.
