About This Item
A nice copy of Gillham's work on Alaskan folk tales. This is the First UK edition, illustrated by Chanimun, part of the Medicine Men of Hooper Bay series. Original cloth, clipped DJ which is generally very nice, a little browning to edges and an old mark at bottom right front cover. Pages have a little staining to bottom edge of textblock. But internally pages are excellent: no inscriptions, clean and bright, no markings or browning. Spine is completely tightly bound. See all photos - we don't use stock photos, all pictures are of the actual edition for sale
