San Marino, CA: The Huntington Library, 1955. Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. Book has a tight spine, square boards, and is unmarked save for a tiny stray inking on front page block, really almost new. The dust jacket has a couple of very stray ink marks to the front cover, not really all that noticable and some loss at top of spine with a small bit of fray and folding around the top. Not price clipped. Tan cloth boards have black lettering on the spine with a fold out stagecoach schedule and endpaper maps. A fine copy of an exciting journey. "It's best to keep the wheels rolling or they'll slide!" .
