About This Item
Concord, New Hampshire, U.S.A.: Edson C. Eastman, 1875 Publisher: Concord: Edson C. Eastman, 1875. Very Good condition with 252 illustrated pages, (generally followed by the Large folding map of The White Mountains which is unfortunately missing however a copy can be provided) & 10 pages of illustrated ads. A very attractive example of the Twelfth Edition . Dated 1875 on the title, 1873 on the preface and 1872 on the copyright page. Original dark Green cloth with Titles in gilt and blindstamped border rules, rear hinge is a tad loose else contents are very clean and near fine to fine. Folding original map 'Map of Routes' soundly affixed at the title page and in Near Fine condition with 1 small misfold. This book and approximately 300 other White Mountain Guides (AMC, Eastman’s, Sweetser’s, Osgood’s, Ticknor’s, Chisholm’s, etc...) are part of a very large collection we have just purchased & taken in from a long-time collector and local AMC & White Mountain historian here in NH. Consisting of over 1500 items, it is one of the largest collections of White Mountains & AMC material that we have ever seen, in private hands that is. If you need or want anything having to do with this field it is likely that we have it or can get it. NOTE: We also have multiple copies of many books, in some cases up to 20 or so. That includes rare titles as well as common ones. For instance, I currently have 3 examples of the 1922 AMC WM Guide, 7 copies of the 1936 WM Guide, 6 1928, over 15 exampless of ‘Passaconaway in the White Mountains’ by Beals....several signed, etc... many others.
