Seller's Description:
First edition. Hudson's Bay Record Society, Volume XII. Printed for subscribers only in a limited edition. Edited and with an introduction by E. E. Rich and A. M. Johnson. Pp. cv, 352, x. Three plates and 16 text illustrations, most printed in red and black. Appendices, index. Blue cloth, gilt. Spine ever so slightly faded, but a very fine, uncut copy. Isham's observations are not primarily concerned with the fur trade, but provide a mine of interesting information on anthropology and natural history.
