About This Item
New York, London: Harper & Brothers Publishers, 1915. Book. Very Good. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 7 1/2h x 5 1/2w. A real nice 280 page first edition hardcover. Has some moderate aging and wear and is still nice. See scan. Has a nice Norman Rockwell frontispiece with rice paper cover. Bloodhound on cover is a little wore. From the start of the book: chapter 1-- HOW FINN CAME HOME: Rightly to appreciate Jan's character and parts you must understand his origin. For this you must go back to the greatest of modern Irish wolfhounds, Finn; and to the Lady Desdemona, of whom it was said, by no less an authority than Major Carthwaite, that she was "the most perfectly typical bloodhound of her decade." And that was in the fifteenth month of her age, just six weeks before Finn's arrival at Nuthill..

About Warren's Books
I have been selling books since 1976. I am not a mega-lister that just types in an ISBN and paste a message of how great I am or how many books we\I sell. I list each book carefully trying to tell the faults and positives of our book. Most of the time I will tell what the book is about and list if it a first edition, hardcover or has a dust jacket. Photos of books are usually my scan and not a stock photo. If you have any questions, please ask. If you decide to pay with check or money order, please make it out to Warren Hahn, That's me!! I have about 5,200 books online with another 200 to list.
