About This Item
Vintage, 2000. 1st Edition. Soft cover. Very Good. Association copy, inscribed in the year of publication on the title page: "For Annie Dillard, Friend, mentor, joke-teller, holder of many good cards, generous lender of the house where this story was first written. Patrick, Feb. 13 '00." With Dillard's "Ex Libris" bookplate. Laid in at back are two slips of scrap paper written with "For Hillsboro-- Annie's student's work" and "Wesleyan '87." A nice association between teacher and student (Dillard taught at Wesleyan, and spent part of her time in Hillsborough, NC). Symmes has continued to write about Cuba with a second book on the country. Very good book with foxing to inside wraps and toning to pages. // Wood (+) River (=) Books specializes in ecology, natural history, nature writing, the environment, and environmental literature, with a special passion for association copies and notable inscriptions.

About Rural Hours
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.
