Description

Pantheon, 1994. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. An association copy, inscribed in the year of publication to Ehrlich's longtime family housekeeper in Santa Barbara: "For Paulina With much love, & thanks for all your help Gretel, August 25, 1994." Paulina is mentioned in Ehrlich's latest book Unsolaced. An interesting association in that it speaks to Ehrlich's relative affluence and the lifestyle that she was perhaps escaping when she struck out for Wyoming where she wrote her classic The Solace of Open Spaces. Very near fine in near fine jacket .

About Rural Hours Oregon, United States

Biblio member since 2023
Seller rating: This seller has earned a 5 of 5 Stars rating from Biblio customers.

Rural Hours (formerly Wood + River = Books, est. 2019) specializes in ecology, natural history, nature writing, the environment, environmental literature, and contemporary essay, with a special passion for association copies and notable inscriptions. We draw our name from the popular-but-then-forgotten book by Susan Fenimore Cooper (published in 1850), generally considered the first work of environmental creative nonfiction by a woman in the U.S. We are interested in challenging and expanding the canon of environmental literature and finding books that tell remarkable stories and illuminate the tradition of writing about place and natural history.
