[Delavan, WI]: Delavan Lake Yacht Club, 1995. History of this social organization, its members & their activities, mostly sailing; planned for its centennial, but taking longer than the writer intended. Delavan Lake is in south-eastern Wisconsin, between the small city of Delavan and the better-known Lake Geneva, beloved/beset by wealthy Chicago denizens. Hardcover, as pictured; no jacket, as issued. Light wear; possibly a flawed copy, with some blank pages - possibly as designed, though you wouldn't think even a novice would omit a title page. Still, everything called for in the table of contents seems present, so we are inclined to think it's complete, as published. Text clean; [10], 220 pages; 1992 membership list, many b/w photos, a few maps & repros of old ads. . First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. Small Quarto.
