Description

NY: Random House, 2020. First edition. Hardcover. Very good. A softcover uncorrected proof of this debut, a work of literary journalism that was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in nonfiction. An investigative true crime story that is also a sophisticated exploration and history of the Bakken Oil Boom and the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation in North Dakota, and a beautiful evocation of place. Contemporary uncorrected proofs are increasingly uncommon as publishers move to digital proofs. Laid in an unsigned publicist letter giving the book away to a lay reader. A very good plus copy with edge wear and scratching..

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.
