About This Item
New York: Dodd, Mead & Company. Fair in Very Good dj. 1954. First Edition. Hardcover. [ex-school library book, heavy wear to bottom edge, front hinge cracked and crudely repaired, labels and pockets on front endpapers, etc.; the jacket, however, is fairly presentable, with just a bit of paper loss at the extremities, and a corner torn away at the bottom of the rear flap (taking a little bit of text with it)]. (pen and ink drawings) Juvenile adventure set in the jungles of the Amazon headwaters. One of a series of "boys in exotic locales" tales by this author ("Wu Han of Korea," "Pancho of Peru," etc.). The book's a bit of a mess, as noted, but the jacket would transfer well to a better copy, if you happen to have one and aren't opposed to remarriage. .
