Two very minor flaws on the boards, one front, one back. Dust jhacket has some wear along the top and minor corner bumping. Minor scrapes on the back page do not mar the wrap-around photo of loggers on a felled tree. Unclipped. Orginally released as two volumes in 1975, the two books have been combined as one in this publication. Fabulous reproductions taken from over 5000 negatives shot by Darius and Tabitha Kinsey in the woods of Washington State at the start of the 1900s. Giant redwoods and cedars are featured being felled by men with axes and hand saws. There are also family portaits and camp and homesteader life shots all beautifully presented in black and white photos. The authors, who are credited with being the 'producers' of the book contributed linking commentary (Bohn) and photo printing (Petschek). Includes contributions by son and daughter Darius Jr. and Dorthea. There are also numerous interviews with pioneers describing the challenges of eking out a living among these giant trees. A treat to read and marvel at the photos. 319 pp. This oversized and weighty volume will require a postal surcharge.
