Seller's Description:
Fine in Near Fine jacket. First edition. Thin octavo. 85pp. Illustrated from photographs. Lightest hint of foxing on endpapers, else fine in a near fine dustwrapper with just a bit of wear, a small scratch on the front panel, and a hint of sunning on the spine. A very handsome copy. Briefly but boldly Inscribed on the half-title [Signed "Peter (Matthiessen), " as he knew the recipient]. Also briefly Inscribed on the title page by photographer Chauncey Loomis, under the phrase "Illustrated with photographs." (Loomis was a Dartmouth professor, Arctic historian, and documentary filmmaker, and is mentioned in the book as the Expedition's photographer. ) Laid in is a Signed postcard from Matthiessen's wife, Maria, to the woman the book is Inscribed to (a bookseller), discussing the first editions of Matthiessen's books they possessed at the time. A slight association, twice Inscribed, and a handsome copy, to boot: presumably uncommon thus.
