About This Item

Good+ in blue cloth boards & fabric spine in fair glassine dust jacket. An anecdotal memoir of various events in Williams' life, including a turkey hunt. With a foreword by Kenneth Roberts. Illustrated with B&W line drawings by Churchill Ettinger. This example has numerous small flaws including tape ghosts inside front cover, both covers cracking inside, a small discoloration area to the front.
