About This Item
Washington, D.C.: United States Dept of the Interior, 1958. 1st Edition . Soft cover. Good. 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. Quarto. 299 pages, indexed. Softcover in yellow wrappers. The binding is smudged and worn but sound. All edges of text block are foxed. Illustrated with photos, graphs and charts, but the work has the look of a photocopied production. The quality of the photos is not great, and there are grey smudges or marks at the lower right corners of the pages, likely from the copier which made this. The only dates on the volume are 1958, but this could also be a later printing, perhaps 1970s or 1980s. A useful work.
