Seller's Description:
Near Fine in Very Good jacket. First edition. Illustrated by Lorence F. Bjorklund. Octavo. 222, [2] pp. Trifle worn and topedge with the tiniest bit of foxing, very near fine in a spine-sunned, very good dust jacket with a couple of tiny nicks. Inscribed on the front fly: "Love From cousin-sister Bobette Gugliotta." Above her Inscription is another, from Carlos Bibo: "Dear Zelda and Eduardo-Hope you enjoy this book as much as I have-Cousin-Sister Bobette is the 'greatest. ' Love and fond recuerdos-Carlos Bibo." (The young hero of the story is named Carl Bibo, but we could find no record of him ever going by Carlos. ) According to the jacket, "the unique customs and scenery of Ácoma form the background for the story, set in 1925 and based on real-life characters coming from vastly different cultures of American Indian and Jew." The author is described as a member of the Bibo family whose lives became entwined with the Ácoma Indians. Although we were unable to prove that "Carlos Bibo" is the main character of the story, still a nice association; both he and the author use the term "cousin-sister" in their inscriptions, a term of endearment used by the Ácoma in the book.
