Seller's Description:
Near fine. 1st Edition. xi, [3], 356pp. Octavo. Original gilt lettered red cloth with plates from photos. Frontispiece portrait. Upper corners lightly bumped. Original printed dust wrapper. A few small pieces missing from the top of the wrapper. Price clipped on the front flap. A very nice copy in an excellent overall dust wrapper. Greely's autobiography, including the Lady Franklin Bay Expedition. This copy with a long personal inscription to the U.S. Ambassador Jules Jusserand (1885-1932), dated September 1927, the year of publication. The Ambassador is mentioned on P. 315 of the book. Although not a rare book, it is difficult to find in a nice wrapper; especially so with such a good association and inscription.
